Important Question: Re-Torquing Wheel Spacers
#1
![Default](https://my350z.com/forum/images/icons/icon1.gif)
I'm installing my new H&R 25mm TRAK+ wheel spacers - DRM-type (the kind with new studs pressed in to the actual spacer, so it's a true bolt-on and you don't have to remove and press in new, longer spacers into your OE hub). In the directions, it says "All wheel lug nuts and bolts need to be re-torqued after 100 km / 60 miles." Does that mean I need to remove the wheel nuts, take the wheels off, re-torque the spacer nuts, put the wheels back on, then re-torque the OEM wheel lug nuts? I have to drive this car tomorrow for well over 60 miles. I'll be able to bring my torque wrench and re-torque the wheel nuts, but if I have to re-torque the actual spacer nuts, I can't be bothered. Please let me know the answer.

You are “obsessing.” Don’t worry too much about the exact mileage where you must do this. Drive it today (tomorrow), and then deal with it when it is convenient.
You should contact the manufacturer for answers to your specific questions.
Also... you should re-torque on a suspended/unweighted wheel.

On a side note, my CT plate is OBZEZD ("obsessed")...so, yes I am
