In tow a lot. In AZ there is no off season like many on here have.
I always use steel wheels. A new steel wheel will need retorquing until the paint has worn off of the seat that the lug nut clamps into.. After that I have never had one loosen up. I stopped worrying about it years ago.
The DW and I were driving south on Loop 303 in Phoenix about six weeks ago. On the shoulder, there was a brand new TT that didn't even have tags on it yet. It was missing a wheel/tire. There was a young man pushing a tire from about 200 yards back. I assume it was his and the brand new wheel had come loose from the brand new trailer and he was going to check out his brand new jack and his brand new lug wrench.. :S
Brand new, yes that is when it is most likely to loosen, if it were even tightened properly in the first place.
