Be careful as you might snap bolts are 50ft-lbs, I've heard people snapping bolts, so i'm real cautious if i do not have spares

Yeah, I don't have any spare bolts so I want to be super careful.

I'm also missing one the dummy bolts on one of the center caps. Not sure where I can find a replacement though. Looked all over at parts stores and didn't find one. Wonder if memory fab would have one I could buy off them.

I think my torque wrench only goes down to 35 ft lbs. I only have a 1/2" torque wrench though.

The way you have to think of it is that you have 20 or more bolts with about 25ft-lbs you have a collective torque of 500ft-lbs holding the wheel together

my 1/2 torque wrench goes up to 100nm, because i used it to change the head gasket on my Z and needed something that could get 100nm for the cam gear bolt

I just found out my brother was at a party lastnight that got busted by the cops. He ended up hiding on the roof and managed to stay there for 3hrs in mid 30º weather until the police left. I've taught him well.

he underage?

35ft-lbs should be more than enough. 25ft-lbs should be where you want to be. I don't know what the fuck I was thinking when I said 50.

Atta boy.

I had to pick up my underage brother and cousin at a party that got busted once. They hid in the bushes a block away and watched people get busted. My brother was so tanked that he freaked out and thought I was a cop when I walked over to them.

[andybob]

I'll get an idea on how tight they are when I pull them apart. Think I am going to go out and fuck around with them in a few minutes actually.

Picked my brother up from a party once in a 3 door Clio, he tried to grab the handle to get in the rear door(can you see where this is going?) a bunch of times and fell right on his ass. Dude was wrecked

My friends were fucking dumbasses in highschool. I don't think I would ever want the drinking age to be lowered to 18 here. They used to leave parties hammered and drive home all the time like "don't worry man, I wont get caught". I don't think most people are mature enough at 18 to handle booze and then make a decision on how to get home.

[andybob]

Gonna go fuck with my wheels for a bit. later guys.

Higher legal drinking age just increases the risk taking illegal behavior.

I never drunk drove because for the first 3 year of your driver license which you get at 18(you can learn to drive from 16, but can't drive solo) you have a zero alcohol condition.

I may have been over a couple of times but that would have been maybe a 0.01 the morning after driving to work, but never drove after drinking.

later.

The wheel face might be in there pretty tight as the usually machine tight tolerances
