Wheel torque

**asshanson** · 04-05-2006

How much torque is necessary for rims?

I have a set of 92 gsx rims and a set of 18" Konig Imagine Opal that I just put back on for the summer.

Just want to make sure I have them to a good amount and not over/under tightened.

I always used 80-85.

most cars are like 90-100

Imports seem to be lower than domestics, my Honduh is around 75.

Mr. Chilton says 87-101

i would go with 90. that sounds good to me. mostly its important they are all fairly equal so you dont warp anything.

I always do them at 100 and be done with it.

lol, honestly, guys....100 I work at plymouth tire and auto, and officially all the cars that get worked on, alloys and steelies, all get torqued to 100 ft/lbs. stock dsm rims arent special in any way.

Speaking of which if any of you need oil changes we've got a spring special!
