Those tire sizes listed do not fit any Corvette made.

You just woke up a 2-year old post from the dead. OP picked up his Kia Optima owner's manual by mistake. See post #7.

100 ft. lbs. is the correct torque spec.

Torque spec for my 2018 Porsche Cayenne is 118 lb/ft.

Yep, really no need to bring back such an old thread, especially after the OP acknowledged his error. We're done here.
