one mistake

bentley manual says to torque lug nuts to 74+/-4 lb.ft (100 +/-10N.m)....page010-11

this guy put 90lb.ft . Where can I get what he's smoking?

really? I always do 80lb.ft on M12 lug bolts at every autoX myself to be fair on my old jetta and my M3's 2 events. Hell, my old Si, I did 80lb.ft also on it's M12 lugnuts

Remember that too high of a torque can stretch the metal more and fatigue it faster. If they do it with no issues, then I guess that's nice. All I'm saying is that what he listed is not the proper listed spec

88 ftlb is the updated factory spec (bentley is behind a bet).
