If it helps others I also reached out to RTR who very promptly replied. They recommend Ford factory torque. đź‘Ť

So just a sanity check, thwse will be my first set of aftermarket wheels ever. Do you torque the spline nuts up to the same torque as standard? I'm imagining so? Thanks.
I would torque mine to 70lbs when i first got wheels. Now i just let the ugga dugga machine take care of it.

Never trust Ford’s torque specs, here is my recommendation from another thread :

Six and a half Ugga Dugga’s with red loctite for me, works a treat and I’ve never had a loose wheel nut … :like:

For the open lug nut gang, I would still recommend six and a half Ugga Dugga’s, but skip the red loctite and go with touch of stick weld on the back of the nut … :like:

What's a good set of black lugs to get for these, ideally under $50.
