do you not use the factory torque spec. for All wheels?
i know regular specs are 100 ft. lbs. i dont know if it matters for those specific wheels

not sure. I would think that drag wheels with shank style lugs might be different. Figured I would ask before breaking something

100ft lbs will work just fine, but nothing more than 120

If you go to Weld's website, you can find it on there. They told me to torque my ProStar's to 90ft lbs, but nothing more than 95ft lbs.
