Looking to install my new rims, but not sure what to torque the lugs to. Anyone know?

Thanks

Until your impact wrench decelerates a considerable amount and goes duh duh duh duh duh.

There's no such thing as deceleration! It's accelerating in a negative direction *physics nerd* . :evil:

I have mine at 84lbs. I think it's fine to have it anywhere between 75-85lbs or somewhere around there. And impact wrenches are not the best idea for torquing your wheels :fadein:

You should verify the torque with the wheel manufacturer. Different materials require different torque applications.

I torque it until it strips, then I back it off a quarter turn
