Default Torque setting for wheel nuts?
Any idea on the correct torque setting for the wheel nuts on my 03 WRX...about to go out and fit my new STI alloys

According to autodata the correct torque is 88nm which is about 65lbs/ft.

Hope this helps.

ft.lb? lb.ft? Not lb/ft nor ft/lb and no seconds in there at all.
