OK, that was 4 words.

If you had trouble with your lugs then

1. They were over-torqued
2. You need to work on your arm/upper body strength

85 ft/lb is the specification.

So you mean if I've had the Michelin my tire won't pop?

I'm pretty sure it's over-torqued. My friend and I tried standing on the bar to remove it and they wouldn't break loose. 2/5 of the nuts required the strength of 4 arms and legs and we aren't scrawny either.

I'm at Volco tires now and seeing if they can repair the tire.
