 Posted: Mon Sep 27, 2010 2:35 am Post subject: Rear wheel bolt Torque Settings |
 |
|
I am on the road In Jordan and just had a rear flat and got it plugged.
What are the torque settings for the rear wheels bolts?
How essential is it to get them properly torgue amd should I be more careful with a plugged tire with a full load including passenger.

Yes! The BMW plug kit is just to get you to the next stop to get a new tire. Having said that, I've been running a professionally repaired front for a couple of thousand miles now. But it's a inside patch/plug combo and I still don't fully trust it.

I'm still running a patched rear on my '97. I picked up a nail w/in 250 miles after being installed. It'll probably be ready for a replacement next spring.
