I'm a believer in checking torque and tightening to specs after a lugnut has been loosened for whatever reason. I do this every 50 to 100 miles or therabouts until the nuts no longer tighten at the specified torque. I do not generally check them before every trip because they just don't seem to loosen for no reason once they're tightened and checked properly as noted above. I will occasionally take the torque wrench to them just to make sure but have never found a loose one other than as noted above.
