2012 Wheel Lug Torque Spec - Honda Pilot

mudbog · 10-28-2011, 05:23 PM

Anybody know the wheel lug torque spec for the 18" wheels on the 2012 Pilot? I found the torque for the spare in the manual. It is 94 ft-lb. But that is considerably higher than the 80 ft-lbs. for my 2004.

Why don't you trust the manual? Granted it is a bit higher, but it's also a completely different vehicle than your 2004.

Uhm -because like I noted, the manual gives the torque rating for the spare but not the regular alloy wheels. Am I supposed to assume that the 18" alloy rims get the same torque spec as the steel wheel used on the spare?

Yes, it's the same.

The alloy wheels have steel inserts where the lug nut makes contact.
