Where to find torque spec for 3100 Cyclone wheel lug nuts? Is it best to use torque wrench or just tight with pneumatic air wrench? Do Aluminum rims have extra limitations?

Use a torque wrench set to 120 to 140 Ft LBS check at 50 at 250 and 500 miles

IMHO Just run 'em up with an impact wrench. Too much emphasis on torque value. The REAL problem is the tires that come as standard. Do yourself a favor and upgrade your tires. ED. :angel:

Cast wheels are prone to damage without proper torque on the lugnuts. I run the nuts on with impact set on low then use the torque wrench.
