Default Torqueing lug nuts?
My tire store actually used a torque wrench to torque the
lug nuts. I was impressed! The service manager told me
they do them all now. He said that the air impack wrench
may or may not tighten the lugs enough. I can still remember
in the past broken or stripped lugs nuts & studs as a result
of using the air impack wrench.

What does your tire store do now?
