    Torque wrench setting?

    What is the torque wrench setting supposed to be on our wheel lug nuts? I hear 65 foot pounds of torque.

    I don't have stock wheels on my ride, I think the torque spec is for all wheels on our cars. Please correct me, if I'm wrong here.

    It is, indeed, 85 foot pounds torque for the lug nuts.

    Thank you...I had a feeling 65 ft. lbs. was not enough. I better go break out my torque wrench. :)

    FWIW, Honda brake rotors and hubs do NOT warp when torqued hard like other cars do.
