Wheel torque for C4S

[ruftec]

Hello,

I have to reinstall new wheels on my 2003 C4S and I was wondering......

What is the recommended torque for the lug nuts?

Thank you,

:huh:

The manuals says 130 Nm (= 96 ft-lb)

Callas Rennsport recommends 93 ft-lb on the bolts and around 53-56 on the wheel lock bolt because of the aluminum. That's what I have and it has no problems.

Can someone explain why the wheel lock bolt would be so much lower? Is it not the same construction as the other bolts except for the head of the bolt?

I do know the worst thing is to have differing torques on the bolts. The uneven pressure on the brake disk hat is what causes warping as the brakes heat up and cool down.
