is 100 ft lb enough tourque to tighten the lugnuts on the rims? For referance I have aftermarket volk rims. I tightened it to 100 ft. lbs, hopefully I didn't forget to tighten any !!! -.-

 

Whoa...That's too much. The recommended torque settings for lug nuts should be around 70. Hopefully you didn't stretch the threading on the bolts.

 

ahhhhh **** !!!!!! -.- so aside from maybe i stretched the threading on the bolts, is there anything bad that can happen while i drive??? btw, these aren't normal lug nuts, i have the rays extended ones.

 

Now you have mitsu extended studs to match.

 

 

that's too much.
it has to be around 80lbs. +- 5lbs.

 

i Trq my lugnuts to 92ft/lbs & have been for almost 3 years now with no problems, i doubt another 8ft/lbs will stretch the studs. im using OEM lugs on the stock rims & Ray's lugs on the track wheels

 

too much torque can warp your rotors.

 

Anywhere from 73-82 ft.lb should be more than enough, 100 ft.lb is too much, IMHO.

 

100lbs is too much it can damage your wheel bearing. 80lbs is already good enough.

 

according to the torque specs thread it lists 73 +/-7 ft lbs. I only torque mine to 73.

i used to torque mine at 100lb at the advice of a friend. let just say i don't take advice from him anymore and i'm currently replacing a few of my stud.

 

how did you figure 100 lbs?

 

100 ft-lbs is too much, but you won't damage anything short term.

Next time you get a chance, loosen them and re-torque them to around 75-80 and you'll be fine. My dealership torques mine to about 140 every time I go in there, and I have to re-do it no matter how many times I ask. I guess they are afraid my wheels might fall off!

 

uneven torque warps rotors.
