Reply to "Wheel Lugnut Torgue Specs"

My new 16x8 and 17x11 Campy repro by Boyd call for 3 stages ending in 65 ft/lbs, significantly less than the 90 I generally use on the magnum 500s and Shelby 5-spokes (and all the family cars). BTW, great topic, I would urge everyone to check the torque on their wheels once a quarter, especially on the family cars where you may have someone else install/rotate tires. An impact gun is ...not... a precision tool, nor is the guy making $8 an hour installing tires. When I have any tire work done to the family cars I always bring them home, back them off, and retorque them, checking in a week. there are some really ugly pictures floating around of $100k classic cars where a newly installed tire came off and took most of a fender with it, best case.,,
