997 lug bolt torque

[lmritter]

Greetings:

I may not be using the DIY/Maintenace section correctly, would someone confirm ( or deny ) my understanding that the Lug Bolt torque on my 2006 997 C2S is 94 ft/lbs. I am placing some aftermarket chrome lugs on my wheels. Also has anyone done the same and are your satisfied with the look. I have Carrera Classic 19" panited wheels...with those less than beautiful painted lugs.

Thanks

I believe it's 96 ft/lbs, IIRC. I have Ralph Boothe's Chrome Lugs on my Carrera Classic 19". I think it adds a touch of class/bling factor to the rims. If you have the Black Carrera Classic rims, the chrome lugs will stand out more than the standard silver wheels.
