of track width, tire pressure, and load capacity. Size changes such as rim width, center piece location,
larger or smaller diameter, etc., without written factory recommendations, may result in an unsafe
condition regarding stability.
Wheel installation
It is extremely important to apply and maintain proper wheel mounting torque.
Wheel nuts must be installed and maintained at the proper torque to prevent loose wheels, broken
studs, and possible dangerous separation of wheel from the axle. Be sure to use only the nuts
matched to the cone angle of the wheel.
Tighten the lug nuts to the proper torque to prevent wheels from coming loose. Use a torque wrench to
tighten the fasteners. If you do not have a torque wrench, tighten the fasteners with a lug wrench, then
immediately have a service garage or dealer tighten the lug nuts to the proper torque. Over-tightening
will result in breaking the studs or permanently deforming the mounting stud holes in the wheels. The
proper procedure for attaching wheels is as follows:
a)
Start all nuts by hand to prevent cross threading. DO NOT use lubricant on threads or nuts;
b)
Tighten nuts in the following sequence;
