Lug Nuts: What You Need To Know... //

You ask.... we answer! With informative videos like these, we try our best to answer some of the most frequently asked questions we get on our KZbin and Social Media posts. Funny enough, we get A LOT of questions regarding LUG NUTS. In this episode of FAQ, we answer the following questions:
00:08 - "Is there a 'correct' way to tighten your lug nuts? Does the "star pattern" (or criss-cross) really serve a purpose?"
00:48- "Does it really make a difference if I use my IMPACT GUN instead of my TORQUE WRENCH?"
02:49- "So, I just picked up a new set of wheels... what's the best way of installing them without scratching the finish?"
03:17- "So many types of lug nuts out there... which one should I be using for my car?"
04:43- "Does THREAD ENGAGEMENT really matter if my wheel is on nice and tight?"
06:42- "Can I drive with a missing lug nut? Just noticed one of mine fell off at some point..."

Great FAQ/Tech and tips(PAUSE) VLOG. Keep up the great work. Much love and respect

[@JamieBainbridge]

Every time I see these videos I idly think "Man those are some good looking wheels" then remember what channel I'm watching 😅

[@konigwheels]

haha! We have no idea what you're talking about.

this faq is nuts... wait, too soon? I torque my lug nuts in two stages. first with wheel suspended (not touching ground) I torque to half recommend or 50 lb-ft to ensure the wheel is on correctly and evenly. then with the wheel 80% on the ground, I finish with the final torque. is this more work, yes, and it may not be the most correct, but I feel more confident doing it this way....

[@konigwheels]

Comment of the day. You're doing it the proper way. Besides, at the end of the day you can never be overly safe with something like wheels/tires. It's worth the extra step. Appreciate you @summerbrz !
