Default Torque specs and Tire pressure??/ Sorry for the stupid questions

Ok I am a bit nervous but what are the torque specs when using Volk Duranuts Some sites that sell them warn against over torquing so I want to make sure.

Also because of all alignment issues I want to make sure I dont wear the tires out due to poor tire pressure. For 245-35 and 275-35-19 what pressures are you running.



Sorry about the dumba$$ questions I just want to play it safe and I did a search and couldnt find exactly what I am looking for.


Thanks.

For stock tires you should inflate to 35 psi. I am on my second set of tires (using 245/40-18 in front) and I notice they are wearing on the edges, so I will probably start running 40 psi to see if that improves the wear pattern. You may want to start around 35 and see how things go and adjust accordingly.

The lugnuts should be tightened to 80 ft-lb for stock wheels. I don't think that value would be different for aftermarket stuff, since you are using the same lugs, but a second opinion may be a good idea.

I tighten my stock wheels and my race wheels (Enkei RPO2-J) to 80 ft-lb.
