Davidoo Posted April 29, 2022 Report Share Posted April 29, 2022 (edited) I just got my 22 ST a few days ago. I didn't want to pay the extra $75 to the dealer for the locking lugs, so I bought them from Ford accessories site for $48. My manual says to tighten to 162 ft/lbs? I've never had a car call for that. My previous 2017 Fusion had upgraded wheels and I think they only went to 110 or 120. I didn't get the performance wheels and brake package, but the ST comes standard with 20 inch bright machined aluminum painted. That just seems like a lot of force for aluminum wheels. I suppose I should trust the manual? Thanks! Edited April 29, 2022 by Davidoo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sage Posted April 29, 2022 Report Share Posted April 29, 2022 My 2019 requires that and from what I understand it lists that for the 20/21 sized wheels. I do not have the brake package either. When I first got my ST I wondered about that as well, so I asked a couple of dealers and indies and all looked it up when I was there and confirmed it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akirby Posted April 29, 2022 Report Share Posted April 29, 2022 Larger studs require more torque. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
