Question Torque Specs for Lug Nuts
I have a 2003 F150 FX4 with 17" cast aluminum wheels. I recently purchased a new air compressor with impact gun. Does anyone know the torque specs for these wheels so that I don't overtighten the lugs?

Lets put it theis way, dont use the impact to tighten them all the way. If i remember correctly the specs are 105ft/lbs. Then u are suppose to re-torque them 100 miles after u put them on.

Look in your owners manual. I think it is 150 lb feet of toyruq.
NEVER use an impact to tighten alloy wheels, it will warp them!
