Correct torque for wheels - Honda Prelude Forum

preluder888 · 03-30-2001, 12:33 AM

What is the correct torque I should apply to the wheel nuts. Is it 80 ft.lb? I put 82ft.lb on my wheel nuts, and after driven it for a while, when the wheels are warm, I check the torque again using a torque wrench, and the nut can be tighen more even when set at 82ft.lb. What is the correct torque for the wheels?

80 ft.lb is fine.

I always wait until things cool off.
