MC wheel lug torque specs?

[reyoasian]

Hi guys,

I have a 2012/2013 (really not sure) Mini Cooper Classic (Knightsbridge) with stock 16" wheels and I'm changing them to 15" for snow tires (on steel rims with stock lug nuts)

I am wondering what's the proper torque spec to the lugs? Since I'm going to DIY I want to make sure I torque to proper settings so I don't put myself in danger on the road, nor do I want to break the studs.

I've searched around and found posts that say 85, 103 etc. So no definite answer. Hopefully I can get all the MC guys here to chime in and lend me some knowledge.

Thanks

for a first gen mini they are meant to be 110nm or 81lbft
so depending on your units those numbers could be about right
103ftlb would probably be too much

Workshop manual states wheels nuts 103lbsft +or- 7lbsft
Thats for Gen 2 by the way
