What is your cars recommended wheel nut torque?

[Shel_B]

I'm just curious to see if most wheels are torqued to about the same pressure. Are steel wheels different than alloy wheels?

The 2011 Camry, for all wheels on all models, specifies 76 ft. lbs. of torque for the bolts. Would aftermarket wheels require a different rating?

What's the rating for your car?

130 Nm or 96 ft/lbs for all wheel types including spacesaver spare.

The data points would be more useful if you knew the bolt/thread size, type of seat, and wheel construction.

Otherwise, they’re just random numbers.

76 ft-lbs for 2014 Camry, 2013 and 2017 RX350.
100 ft-lbs for 2006 Grand Marquis

An old (sarcastic) German mechanic once told me the proper torque for anything is just before it snaps off the bolt. He also told me to never force anything, just use a bigger hammer.

80-108ft/lbs so I bought a shiny new torque wrench and do it at 100.

90 for the Audi, 76 for the Toyota and 475 for semi trucks I work on.

Wow! I'd never have guessed.

Guten tight.

 

[supton]

I think all mine are 90. Or I should say, I know what I have been using. (99% I looked it up once, per vehicle.)

lol, I use the German torque spec most of the time (Goodentight) and the back yard torque spec the rest of the time (1/4 turn before it breaks).

Just my $0.02
