wheel torque specs?

Yes I searched, but couldn't find the information... What are the wheel torque specs for the 19" peelers?

I think it is 79 ft/lbs. but I do 90.

89 Ft Lbs is the spec.

You wont hurt anything doing 100lbs as long as you use anti seize

It's at the back of the manual in the tire section. 90 +/- 10 ft lbs if I remember correctly.

I do 92 fwiw

Can't go wrong with a torque wrench set to 90. Drive it then check them again.

90 lbs it is. Should be a piece of cake compared to my friend's 911 GT3 who's centerlock wheels need 400 lbs torque

Does he use a fencepost as his wrench handle?

edit, apparently you use a geared and braced torque multiplier as seen here in combination with a standard heavy duty torque wrench. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GzpTU7lBxBA

^^^ Must be a fun job if you get a flat tire on the road....

I had wondered too. Earlier post I saw this week on stretch bolts gave torque specs for lug bolts as 90 lb ft.
