I tourque my lugs at 85lbs. Question to anyone whom has installed kics: do you torque the spacer to the hub at the same rate you torque the wheel to the spacer?

Thanks,

 

info for anybody thinking of buying kics spacers: buy the hub-centric ring for $12 ea wheel.
I thought my poly-carb hub ring that came with my wheels would suffice, but that is only for the spacer that mounts on the hub. You can purchase a cylinder/ring for $12/each spacer that the wheels mounts onto the spacer. If you do not have this ring, the wheels rest soley on the lugs. I can't imagine driving a mile before the lugs would break..makes no sense how Kics would sell a spacer that allows your wheel to mount on the lugs of the spacer.
Just a FYI for anybody thinking of installing these.
Now I have to order the hub rings for an additional $48. $220 for 4 spacers + $48 for rings = $268
Getting expensive just to try an achieve a +17 (front) and a +18 (rear) offset.

 

i think the instructions say in newton force but i calculated to 78lbs/ft.

considering my torque wrench isn't that accurate, you can use 80-85lbs/ft.
I put a very small dab of loctite blue on it (very little) and let it cure
overnight.

and yes, i too recommend you get the hubcentring rings just in case.
can't hurt and its only like $25 more for the pair.

 

The hub rings were always recommend, the reason for them is so that you can change the hub rings to fit your specific application, so the spacers themselves are universal for that lug pattern.
