WARNING: When installing a wheel, always remove any corrosion, dirt or foreign ma\
terials present on the mounting surfaces of the
wheel or the surface of the wheel hub, brake drum or brake disc that contacts the wheel. Make sure that any fasteners that attach the rotor
to the hub are secured so they do not interfere with the mounting surfac\
es of the wheel. Installing wheels without correct metal-to-metal
contact at the wheel mounting surfaces can cause the wheel nuts to loose\
n and the wheel to come off while your vehicle is in motion,
resulting in loss of control. Ib-ft (Nm)
