Checking the tightness of the wheel bolts

After installing the wheel, after driving a few kilometers, stop and check that all wheel bolts are correctly tightened. The bolts must be tightened to a torque of 80 N.m, so do not tighten them further with a longer wrench. Too strong or uneven tightening of the wheel bolts leads to the fact that the brake discs or brake drums are deformed. This leads to uneven distribution of braking force, vibration of the brakes and point wear of the tires.
