When you only have one nut holding it on, you kinda need to make sure it doesn't go anywhere.

Lug wheel torque specs are garbage anyway as previous monkeys are likely to of impacted them on there to hell.

>>15384851
true but they could put more than one then
even if it's a super car you don't need to change wheels fast

>>15384854
A lot of the shops I've talked to are now switching to torque sticks and torque wrenches after getting sued or something else happening to the customer's car.

Quality one bolt wheels have better shear strength than even a 6 lug.

>>15384878
They're cars derived from race cars, it would lose the selling point.

>516 ft ibs

Its more of a cya for shop, cust gets work done 2weeks later wheel falls off, customer comes back to shop, most shops have video of technician working can see if he did it or not with proper torque stick. Happened to me didn't use torque stick boss pissed off we shop has to repair gor free

To get centerlocks off we use a 700 psi nitrogen tank and a 3/4" drive impact, and the 3/4 drive torque wrench to put them back on is about 5 feet long

516 ft lb of torque wtf do your impact tools even have that much torque and how many supercars you get in that shop seriously
