Subject:      Mercedes Wheels Installation Question  90 GL
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"; format=flowed

Got the Vanco 2's mounted on the CLK 16" rims and they fit the front
with no issues or spacers and more than 7 full turns on the stock
wheel bolts/nuts.

Assuming the rears will do just as well.

My question is do I torque these wheel bolts/nuts to the VW spec of
130 ft./lbs. or use whatever Mercedes recommends?

P mail is fine if no one else is interested in this thread.

Thanks
