Like... for the bolts that hold the wheel together? I did 20ft lbs on my friend's OZs.

2 piece wheels usually 20-25ft/lbs and 3 piece are usually 30-35ft/lbs. Thats using new bolts or bolts and nuts. If you reuse bolts you cant tighten them as tight. Also do 2 steps. 1st step 1/2 the finishing tq in a star pattern.

This.
On my RSII's I put a drop of Loctite on the bolt, then threaded them all in a star pattern starting at 12ft/lbs. Then I went back around in a star pattern at 24ft/lbs.

usually in used bolts you can go with 24lbs but depend on the bolts too. For example the bolts that use Gotti wheels only hold 12lbs but the RS bolts holds from 20-30 lbs easily because of the nut :confused

RSII's only have 16 bolts each so it wasn't that bad.

Thanks for the help guys.
As of today, the wheels are assembled and awaiting tires. :)
