I have a question someone on here might be able to answer. What is the correct torque for the lugnuts. I put some of the keyed lugnuts on and I want to make sure I got the correct torque.

I have seen what happens when certain torques are done correctly to catch problems and wheels fall off airplanes. It is pretty interesting to see a plane go up and a tire go off at the same time.

Be sure to push firmly into the tire iron to securely engage the key and lock. You don't want the key to skip and wear the lock down. You could eventually have trouble using the key.
