SOLD 1969 15" MoPar Kelsey Hayes Cast Road wheels - complete, original set. Unrestored !!

[cm23uoc]

It used to be common practice to retighten aluminum wheels after about 60mls when they became more popular as they seemed to Need that procedure. This was not practice back then I guess.
Today tire stores even have their custumers come in to retighten their steel rims after 60mls in some places at least in Germany.
I never noticed this to be necessary on any of my rims after several checks.

Run the lugs on until the impact wrench stops turning them. No wheel or life was ever harmed in all my years.

Me too, but the old timers on the board use torque wrenches. I never do. I tighten till it cant be tightened anymore then give it another quarter turn

 

[commando1]

I tighten till it cant be tightened anymore then give it another quarter turn

Reread that, please And thank you.

 

[tallhair]

I tighten til they start to strip and then back them off a quarter turn

 

[commando1]

That has to be the comeback of the Century.
ROTFLMFAO

 

[polara71]

That's what I meant to say....

 

[commando1]

If it can't be tightened any more, how then can you give it another quarter turn?
Are you super human?
Oh wait. I answered my own question.

 

[polara71]

Again, you don't get sarcasm or humor, I wouldn't expect you to understand

 

[commando1]

Yes, I missed it.

If we ever have a face to face conversation, we would be incommunicable.

 

[polara71]

I will see to it that it does not occur.
Your stick in the mud Floridian attitude coupled with your Snooty Bostonian demeanor will never bump elbows comfortably with my "Dead Pan" Jersey persona .

You should play high stakes poker.

I just may have to get to Calisle...

 

[polara71]

I know better, fold now

 

[commando1]

What are we going to have for lunch. I'll buy.
