Wheel Lug Nut Torque - Ford 2010 Shelby GT500 Supplement Manual

Tire information
Operating at high speeds
Your SVT vehicle is capable of high speeds and is equipped with tires
rated for the vehicle's maximum speed, electronically limited to 155 mph
(250 km/h). Remember to drive safely, obey all traffic laws and only
operate your SVT vehicle at high speeds at locations equipped and
designed to do so safely. Before operating your vehicle at high speeds:
• Ensure correct tire pressures (see Tires in this supplement).
• Inspect wheels and tires for wear and damage. Replace any damaged
wheels or tires.
• Do not operate your vehicle at high speeds with more than two
passengers or while carrying cargo.
Wheel lug nut torque specifications
Retighten the lug nuts to the specified torque at 500 miles (800 km)
after any wheel disturbance (tire rotation, changing a flat tire, wheel
removal, etc.).

* Torque specifications are for nut and bolt threads free of dirt and
rust. Use only Ford recommended replacement fasteners.
WARNING: When a wheel is installed, always remove any
corrosion, dirt or foreign materials present on the mounting
surfaces of the wheel or the surface of the wheel hub, brake drum or
brake disc that contacts the wheel. Ensure that any fasteners that
attach the rotor to the hub are secured so they do not interfere with
the mounting surfaces of the wheel. Installing wheels without correct
metal-to-metal contact at the wheel mounting surfaces can cause the
wheel nuts to loosen and the wheel to come off while the vehicle is in
motion, resulting in loss of control.
