Help ...

Having read recently of an Impreza shedding a wheel through over-torquing of the wheel nuts, I have decided to check the wheel nuts on my Impreza STi MY98 with standard gold 16" 5 spoke alloys.

Can anyone tell me the correct Torque figure please?

Thanks in advance.

Steve

Jim,

Thank you, that's more like I expected - dealer said 85 ft lb which seemed too high!
