Would anyone know the recommended wheel torque for the M35X?

Thanks,

Thank you so much for your quick reply.

Thanks, yes.

As a reminder to everybody, setting the lug nuts to the correct torque is important. I check mine every couple of months.

Over-tightening can cause unusual creaking noises when driving and braking and under-tightening has the obvious problem.

Thank you so much for your quick reply.

My pleasure-enjoy your M35x-I love mine.

I noticed you own, or had once owned a '56 Chev Bel Air. In 1965 my first car was a '57 Bel Air. I paid about $400 US. She was a beauty-all chrome and aquamarine color. I drove her for about 2 months. The girls were duly impressed.

There was a once every 100 year flood of the S. Platte River in Denver, Colorado USA that summer. I was working for Civil Defense as a summer job cleaning out a butcher shop that had been inundated by the river w/all kinds of smelly, grimy and spoiled meat sides. We got a sudden warning that there was another flood stage coming through immediately. I got out in the CD van along w/the rest of my crew. My car was parked too far away to get to for my supervisor who wanted us all together immediately. We left the scene ASAP.

When we returned a day later the Bel Air had been washed away. I never saw her again...
