All alloy wheels should be installed using a manual torque wrench applied in foot pounds, not an impact wrench, to torque rating specifications followed by periodic re-torquing.

Proper torque for your wheels means - Tighten lug nuts in a crisscross pattern for best equal torque distribution. Re-torque at 100 miles.
