Is the torque the same with the factory and aftermarket wheels.I'm guessing it has to do with stud not the wheels ( 100 pounds torque )?

From: Wylie TX --> Less is More, except under the hood !
Should be 100ft lbs
Only exception is that some aftermarket brake rotors with Aluminum hats may require less. They say it can warp the rotor hat. My Bear brakes say 95 ft lbs.

Thanks Toque for heads up. Rotors are next!
For all the people on the recent brake thread that are swapping out their rotors might have overseen this point.
