Easy one - Wheel torques

[dunc]

Anyone know what torque the wheel bolts should be? They are 19" alloys although I doubt that would make any difference.

Thanks

Dunc.

Depends which bolts you have:- Silver wheel bolts (up to model year 2011) = 130 Nm (96 ftlb.). Silver wheel bolts as of model year 2012 = 160 Nm (118 ftlb.). Black wheel bolts = 160 Nm (118 ftlb.)

Dunc, Check your Driver's Manual under Wheels - Tightening torque (p188?). For my 987.2 CS it's 130 Nm. There's nothing to indicate a different torque for 18" or 19" wheels. Jeff
