What is the correct lug nut to use and how tight should I torque the lug nuts?
Bassett Racing Wheels require a hardened steel, 1″ oversize, open-ended lug nut with a 45 degree seat chamfer. Before going on the track, always use a torque wrench and torque lug nuts to 85 ft.-lbs. For brand new wheels, make sure to retorque after first use because as the powder coat paint gets worn off, it can cause the lug nuts to loosen slightly.
