Correct foot/lbs for lugnuts?

kfull · 10-10-2012, 01:48 PM

Anyone know which page of the owners manual tells the correct ft/lbs of torque for the wheel lugnuts? I know it's 80 ft lbs from another thread but I just want to see it in the manual. Ive looked but maybe I'm just blind

80 ft/lbs on page WT-46 of the service manual, or page 6-7 of the Owner's Manual.

FWIW, it's page WT-99 in the 2009 FSM - "Wheel nut tighting torque 108 N·m (11 kg-m, 80 ft-lb)"

Guess I should have mentioned the service manual I quoted was the 2012 version...

Does anybody know what size oem lug nut that is for the rays rim. Trying to buy a nice socket and breaker bar online while at work. The oem one is weak as far as leverage goes. Thanks
