Wheel Studs

Redlight · 12-29-2009, 10:28 AM

I have found with Weld wheels you need to retorque them alot. They seem to take longer to "take a set".

Not sure if it is the stud stretching, wheel expanding/contracting (aluminum) or a combination of both.

On a street car , after an install, I torque once a day for a week, once a week for a month and once a month thereafter.

The Bogarts on the race car don't seem to have the same issue?
