I bought a set of apex SM-10 ET 40 19x10 wheels last week. The tire size is 285 / 35ZR19. However, I found that the suspension sleeves in the front wheels are very close. So I bought a pair of 7mm spacers. However, I have loaded it now. I locked it at 120 / ft.lb and would like to ask if it is safe

Some people told me that they only needed 105lb.ft, some people told me that they needed 120-130lb.ft, and some people said that they needed OEM 150lb.ft. So I am very confused about this problem, and I want to know the safest screw torque of 5mm-7mm.

[QUOTE =“ BlackandBlue,post:2746481,member:42976”] 5mm的垫片是我在股票螺栓上所能做到的。

大约是7.5-8转。少了就削弱了强度。

手册中要求150英尺磅。这样做。[/ QUOTE]
5mm spacer is as far as I would go on the stock studs.
I would like to know if the 5mm washer I bought at CJpony will break the hub screws if I use the original strength of 150lb.
That is about 7.5-8 turns. Anything less is compromising strength.

150 foot pounds is called for in the manual. Do that.

This is the gasket I bought. Is 150lb safe?

I tightened mine to 150 ft lbs with a 5mm spacer.

Make sure you have a 5mm spacer and not 7mm.

If you have a 7mm wait for someone with more experience.
So I ordered another set of 5mm spacers.

5 mm spacers at 150ft bs and be done. the stud will be fine as you have enough thread with the 5mm spacer. i would avoid the 7mm unless you are gonna go with longer studs.

So I can safely use 150 pounds on 5mm?

i do. never had an issue. as long as you are using something similar as posted above the only non stock part you are using is the spacer. you are still using the stock lugs and wheels studs so i would use stock specs.

I will try this two days, because I am going to drive long distance, so I will be very worried about this problem
