Default Lug Nut Torque Spec

Did a search and could not find the answer.

Can someone tell me for a 997.1 C4S what the torque spec is for the lug nuts.

Thanks in advance.

Yes. You're probably aware of this, but tighten the bolts on each wheel in the following pattern, 1-3-5-2-4 or similar (the key is to tighten the next bolt opposite to the one you just did), and make a couple of passes before you get to the final torque.

And you can find the info in the owner's manual - if you don't have a hard copy you can download a pdf version from renntech.org if you're a member.
