What Torque Rating Should the Lug Nuts of the Kenda Wheel and Tire Combo Be Tightened To
Updated 09/08/2011 | Published 09/06/2011 >
Question:
Hello. The warning label on the rim of part # AM30790 says to make sure to torque it 3 times to the manufacturers recommendation. It does not say though what torque the manufacturer recommends. Do you have this information? Thanks.

Expert Reply:
For the wheel included with the tire and wheel combo # AM30790, the specs for the wheel indicate that the lug nuts should be torqued to 50 to 75 foot pounds. You should re-torque them at 10 miles, 25 miles, and 50 miles, and then periodically after that.
