Might still be a problem if they were left on for a long time,
but my wheels come off every 6 months and the anti-sieze seems to
be sufficient. The one time my wheels got stuck was after I
had swapped them out for the mudders, so they had gotten stuck
in only 6 months or less.

Sure, as long as ya don't break 'em. ;-) Actually, if you plan
to use the sawzall, you might want to bring some blades appropriate
to the material you intend to cut, as I think I recently bent up my
last one and haven't gotten around to picking up some more yet.
