Sorry I thought you were talking rear wheel figures as there has been so much dyno talk lately around here. We usually use 75 at work on just about everything, so 75-80 sound right on. |

The factory torque is 100nm (73.8 ft.lbs.)if I remember correctly, but I use 80. Have never had a problem. I have seen too many that were over torqued and produced damaged threads. I know that people have many opinions on this subject but it works well for me even though it may seem too loose to some. I used this same torque on a 355 Challenge car for 2 years with no problems but they do use a wheel stud with a nut instead of a bolt. |

My bad, I should clarify. The lug bolt torque values in ft/lbs.
Thanks |

Should be around 225 at the wheels, 268 at the flywheel and say 16% loss. |

Can someone give me the torque values for the wheels on a 1997 355?
Thanks
