Rim install Questions?

[hellcat77]

Might seem stupid, but gonna ask anyway here.......

Just payed some serious $ for a set of 4 ADR GT sport 18" rims, and Kummo 712's.

They came balanced and mounted, with tuner lugs and lock from www.whalentire.com for $1180.00, think I did ok on the price.

My question is how much torque do I want to put on these allow rims?

Do I want to torque the bolts in a certain order?

I know the Kummo 712's have to be setup with the "rotation" going in the right direction?

Anything else I should know?

I dont want to wreck these spendy ass rims OR my 98 Tsi!

I would be very grateful for any tips or pitfalls you guys have on installing after market alloy rims on a DSM.

Thanks Much guys!

dont put any more than 80 ft lbs on it, do it in a star pattern, dont worry about them so much....

Your sig is a .gif file, you need to remove it.

Arent 95-99 AWD's suppose to be torqued at 87-92 ft/lbs?
Thats what I tq mine to, but like he said be sure to gradually tighten each lug using the star pattern so you dont warp the rotors.
