Bah I said around 85 ft/lbs which is definitely around 87 ft/lbs especially when you take into account the inaccuracy of most torque wrenches.

they probably used an impact wrech to put 'em on & forgot to torque them down tight. If they did this they would definitely "virbate" themselves loose. dum fockers

they blamed it on my aftermarket lugs. Also when i went back on monday after having several studs and lugs replaced they told me the inside of the front wheels is extremely worn away and about to hit the steel belts. I was about to drive to massachusetts from South carolina and they told me this now?? Not to mention if i didnt have a problem with the lugs i would be on the jersey turnpike with my tires about to blow. Northside nissan is horrible
