torque

I wanted to torque my lugs however I dont understand owners manual it says size of lug is 1/2" or 9/16" I am using a 3/4" socket so what gives?

SO I wanted to take a lug nut off and I think theres a anti theft nut on one I tried the other rim and all of them are common. Interesting

They are talking about the diameter of the threaded portion, not the size of the hex of the lug nut. The size of the thread determines the amount of torque to be applied to properly tighten the lug nut.

If my memory is on track right now, I believe the 3/4" socket fits the 1/2X20 stud nuts.

I'm guessing you have seen this chart:

Bolt circle diameter for 4 and 5 lug wheels:



Here is also a nice tool (will need to figure out how to print at 100% scale).

Curious on this one. As the GD Manual for 2022 Reflection has knocked down the torque to account for aluminum rims, to 90 to 100. And the note on the fifth hitch says torqued to 100 ft. lbs. Thoughts?

I had the same note on ours when new. I torque to 100 ft lbs. and use the 3 stage method.
