I'm not sure if improper torque contributed to those cracks, but I always recheck my lugs after having my tires rotated when I get an oil change -- usually the shop over-torques the lug nuts, even though I tell them "83 foot/pounds, please." Sometimes I have to use a breaker bar to release the lugs.
This habit came in real handy recently -- I had a flat on a remote forest road, and we were able to change the tire ourselves because the nuts were not overly tight.
