Don't really matter to me. As long as the wheels don't come loose everything is fine. I'm not rich and don't have a torque wrench so I just make due with what I got. My technique seems to be working the last 5 years I have been into festivas.89L build thread http://www.fordfestiva.com/forums/sh...ad.php?t=36422

I was just saying you don't need a torque wrench to tighten your wheel studs. I have taken tires off these cars more then enough times to know that my wheel is tight and isn't going to come off. The only real time I use specific torque is running the stud conversion. On my last festy the lug nuts would always try to come loose. I think that was because they were junk autozone tuner lugs.89L build thread http://www.fordfestiva.com/forums/sh...ad.php?t=36422
