Torque setting for 996 wheels

[Spice_Weasel]

Can someone with easy access to their owners manual check the Nm torque setting for 996 wheels please? I have Sport Designs fitted if it makes a difference.

I want to buy a torque wrench today but I forgot to check my manual earlier. I don't want to buy one that doesn't go to the required Nm setting!

Thanks

The 96 part is correct......I understand this to be lb/ft not newton metres....once converted to n/m the correct torque for wheel nuts is 140nm

96 lb/ft = 140nm.

My manual says 130Nm (96 ftlb).

Had my wheels off the other day... If you have the chance, use a bit of copper grease on the threads. Helps to get the torque figure correct and makes sure you can get them off at the side of the road.
