Re: Tire torque settings



It depends on how good you are at "feeling" 70 ft-lbs torque. They 
all need to be tight enough, but not too tight, and all kind of the 
same so as not to warp the rotors. 

I'd go ahead and get a torque wrench - the beam-type ones are fine 
and not very expensive. 20 bucks in the latest Sears catalog. Good 
enough for lug nuts. 

Really a good thing to do on ALL your cars.
