Proper maintenance is the clue, inspect it, have in the best condition possible prior to leaving will prevent most tire problems. But when a road hazard happens most times the tire is beyond repair.
When lug nuts have been properly torqued, they can be removed with a common 4 leg wheel wrench.
Every year they should be removed cleaned and replaced torqued properly, when you do your bearings, inspect your brakes.
I'm not too sure about that last statement about a 4-way lug wrench being enough. The lug nuts on my Dodge dually are supposed to be torqued to 160 lb.ft. That is a little tough to loosen with a standard 4-way.
