Don't forget, when installing wheels the order of tighening the studs is amportant as the actual torque. I have seen many techs tighten lugs in a circle, which causes stress in the rotors.

Ideally, you should tighen every other lug and continue to work arount the wheel, torquing in two intermediate steps before reacing the final torque on the last pass.

And, despite what anyone says, an air wrench will not provide nearly as accurate a torque setting as a good torque wrench.

Just my $0.02 worth...
