what is the proper foot pounds to tighten lugs on a gs300/400/430 using a torque wrench.

i did a search and someone mentioned 40 pounds initially and then 75 pounds to finish it off using a star pattern. I've also read in another post to use 92 foot pounds.

is this correct?

i don't want any wraped rotors from over tightening.

 

I heard 80 ft/lbs....but that felt loose for me....so i went to 105 ft/lbs....LOL!!!

 

I set my torque wrench at 85 ft lbs.

 

the proper tqr calvin is 76 foot pounds , do not go beyond 80lbs for you will risk warping rotors easily among other things such as damge to wheel bearing s ..

 

thanks ed.should be easy to remember (our bicentenial)

 

yes factory is 76lb

but for aftermarket, you might want to put a bit more, i do 85. coz' if you actually try, with the aftermarket wheels, most likely you have less turns before it tightens up
