    good question, I wish the gorilla who tightened my right front had this info. She's not budging up to 150 ft-lbs...

    I beleive the recommended torque for those relatively soft lug bolts is 72 lbs.ft. I did mine to 75 lbs.ft. I am running 355 wheels and bolts on a 348.

    That is right - I replaced a few rusty wheel bolts a month ago, called Daniel at Ricambi and he told me the book called for 72lbs. so that is what I used..

    Manual says 72lbs but mine were always coming loose, so I set my torque wrench to 80lbs, problem solved.

    Idiots! LOL, don't believe those clowns. Ask them if they are going to drill out the broken bolts after they shear. I'd stay in the '70's if I were u, but I'm a '70's kind of guy. Rock on dudes! :p
