lug nuts with the cone shaped end of the nut toward the wheel. Lightly tighten
the lug nuts.
3. Align the valve notch in the wheelcover with the valve stem on the
wheel. Install the cover by hand,

the wheel. Lightly tighten the lug
nuts.
5. Lower the vehicle to the ground by turning the jack handle
counterclockwise.

has been tightened twice. The correct tightness of each lug nut is 95 ft/lbs
(130 N·m). If in doubt about the correct tightness, have them checked with a
torque wrench by your authorized dealer or service station.
7. After 25 miles (40 km) check the lug nut torque with a torque wrench to ensure that all lug nuts are properly seated against the wheel.
