Default How many ft/lbs for wheel bolts?
How many ft/lbs of torque should be used for my wheel bolts when my winter wheels (VMR 708) are installed on my car?

90 ft lbs should be fine.

Stock bolts are 14mm with 17mm hex head & floating ball seat washer. They work fine
on the VMR708 wheels.

The OM states that it is 90 lb/ft.

Really? I thought my last two A4's and current S4 all had a spec of 90. I'm installing the winter tires tonight, so I'll check the book to confirm.

Thats good to know, since VMR sent my 18" 708s without any bolts.
