How tight should you do up car wheel nuts? Yes they can be overdone and damaged.

Подробнее о видео

I talk about how tight to tighten wheel nuts on a car. If you don't have a torque wrench how do you know how tight to go?
I have even seen a tyre shop put wheels on with a rattle gun (probably much too tight) and then finish by getting a Torque wrench to click. But if the bolt is already too tight the wrench will just click and it doesn't give any indication of the actual torque already on the bolt. The bolt or nut needs to be actually tightened with the Torque Wrench.
The Internet says "It is normally between 110 N⋅m and 120 N⋅m. Torque on wheel nuts or studs.
If you change the rims on your car, you will find the new torque values in the rim certificate"
