I just did mine yesterday too. Not that I'm strong, but with rubber gloves for grip, I spun it on, felt the o-ring engage, and then tightened it as tight as I could with both hands. Was going to leave it at that but for good measure, I put my strap wrench on it and gave it a final tightening. Much to my surprise, it broke loose and spun another half turn before it finally got tight.

Oh, and 25 nm is only 18.5 ft-lbs., no where near "wheel lug" tight.

Good luck.
