    Nope. 130-150 in the GD manual and 120-140 in the LionsHead manual for the 17.5" wheels. So I split the difference at 130 based upon the LionsHead specs.

    Oops, sorry, just too used to thinking in terms of 16" wheels.

    Same here! The socket I use is from a 6pt set picked up at harbor freight.

    Also, I replaced all of my lug nuts a while back due to reports of those original caps breaking off at the worst possible time.

    Replaced with McGard nuts- best price at the time was at autozone. Check the McGard web site for correct size.
