Do I need to re torque something for the wheels because I don't remember it being like that before.

u did just the rears?

anyway yah, u do need to retorque the spacer lugs and the wheel lugs unless u used any loctite on the spacer lugs.
i usually do the bolt-ons using loctite blue (on the spacer lugs only) and just let it cure a day or so before taking it out.

Didn't use any loctite on anything. I put anti-seize stuff on all the threads. Hand tightened as tight as possible for the spacer lugs. I don't have a proper converter socket for my torque bar since the inserting thingie on the bar is to large for any of my sockets other than the 21mm.

yah, the blue on the spacer lugs cause u cant retorque them unless u take off the wheel which imo is a pita. :D

but if u plan on removing the spacers a couple yrs down the road and will be running it through salty winter, might want to not use the loctite as precaution it might seize.

although u can use a heat gun and get them super hot making the loctite to release..

kenchan 04-14-2016 06:44 PM

i dont use antiseize on the lug threads actually. i might use a dab on the hub area on really rusted rotors (buddies' cars).. brake related.

So basically, i am safe. I just need to torque the spacers down more. That should get rid of the slight floatiness in the wheel when forcing it right.

yep u should retorque it a few times actually if any of them have backed out.

as for the floatiness, no idea beside the fact dat u are running a lower wheel rate now vs stock.

kenchan 04-14-2016 08:22 PM

so my younger kid talked back at the little faker dat's been picking on him at school, even shoved him back since he was pushed. :rofl2: my kid got in trouble for it cause the teacher (still a youngling 20 something, inexperienced) wasn't paying much attention to the kids and just saw my kid shoving the dumbf back.

my kid as worried i'd get mad for getting in trouble, but i told him 'well done! :tup: if the classmate does it again, yell back at him again... i'll talk to ur teacher.' :D
