how many foot pounds should I torque my stock 03 GLE wheels to?

 

discount tire suggests 85-90 lbs

 

also listed in the owner's manual (i believe 85-100 ft/lbs)

 

Ive always done 90lbs, no problems thus far.

 

No more than ~85lbs. per Haynes.

 

90 pounds. in a star pattern over two passes

 

Rtfm?

 

It should be in your manual. I know on my 2000 I believe its 72 - 87 ft/lbs. I usually tighten mine to 85 ft/lbs.

 

Check the manual -- I think mine was 85ft/lbs.

Too bad i didn't do this sooner -- mighta saved my rotors some undue warpage.

Ok - MAYBe.

probably not, I used to religiously tighten mine to 85 ft/lbs and my rotors still warped like a real Maxima

 

I'm going-in for the Brake Judder TSB next week.

Amongst others.

It PAINS me to have to keep the stockers, especially with all of this Blehmco Hype going-on.....still, just can't afford to dump money on the brakes right now. Still under warranty, so I'm going to get it for free.

I suppose they'll give me crap about my springs and suspension mods.
