: Searched the archives, no match, couldn't find the ft/lbs.in my Haynes for the lugs on my '90 325is standard 14" basketweaves. Always used my best judgement but feel like I usually overtighten. Anyone help me out there?

: Thanks,
: Scott

A general rule of thumb is to torque lugs
to 75 ft lbs, but the BENTLEY MANUAL says to
torque wheel bolts to 74 ft lbs.
