Lug nut torque spec?

Changing out the 20's tomorrow for my winter 18's. Anyone know the proper torque specs for the lugs?

I use 140 N-m or 103 ft-lbs for the E70.

No luck with search? or owners manual?

:)

Proper torque values are shown on page 270 of the owner's manual (at least the PDF version. May be different int he paper manual). Is ard right? Well, yes ... and no.

Thanks guys. I did do a a search but most hits were about engine torque specs. I live NYC and didn't feel like walking 5 blocks to my garage just to get my owners manual.

No need to walk anywhere. Go to www.bmwusa.com, log into My BMW and download the PDF version. Much simpler, and also much faster to search.
