What is the wheel torque settings on Tuscan 2 convertable ?

Wheel nuts I assume... I always do mine at 80Nm (110 ft /lbs) and use an extension socket .

Yes I'd guess... with a torque wrench you have a long lever compared to a small wheel spanner. I used to use a telescopic wheel spanner and i'd do up with it short and undo with it long.

Edit... If your wheel falls off you've done it wrong jester

They should be torqued up to 76-85lbft, so they are not going to fall off!
