Anybody happen to know what the proper torque setting should be for ProComp 7089s? Thx

 

Factory specs say 95 Ft/Lbs

 

Standard for most tire shops is 100 ft/lbs.

 

I just set mine to 115 ft/lbs with this

 

I would go anything over 80 to 120 tops.

100 is perfect for aluminimum rims.

 

The rim material has nothing to do with the torque value. Torque values are based upon the bolt material and diameter. Proper torque values allow the bolt to be stretched within its elastic region, thus maintaining preload to prevent the lug nut from loosening. People seem to think that aluminum rims require less torque than steel wheels. You will snap the bolts long before you will significantly damage the wheel.

 

did mine at 110

 

Went with 95 ft/lb

 

My procomps were undertorgued on one wheel and the lugs came loose on the freeway and egged out the rim, making me have to trash one whole rim and replace all of the bent lug bolts on one wheel. Also,...at the same time, a local garage, trying to help my situation, torqued all remaining 15 log nuts on the other wheels to 120 lbs and ruined most of the the lug bolts, stripping them so that they snapped off. I don't think that our standard bolts were designed for this much torque, and to be running upwards of 35" tires as well. I'm looking at replacing all of the lugs with high performance ones. Does anyone know of a goo brand for 4d00r jk's???? OH.....and YES...NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY...Thanks Christ-ler

 

I work for a defense company also. But I bet you get paid a lot better then us Loadmasters.
