I'm in @AZDANSX230HO "neighborhood" I use 90 ft lbs.

90 to 120 is pretty standard for most trailers I have owned over the years, Discount Tire always does 100 when I get new tires put on trailers as well. I have always set mine at 100.

So my standard of as tight as my 1/2" cordless impact will make it might be a little much?

I use 80 ft lbs for aluminum and 100 ft lbs for steel unless I have more specific info. Cam.

Possibly, luckily steel wheels are pretty forgiving.

I just couldn't bring myself to going over 85 lbs. I was afraid I was going to snap them off. I'll check them again after a road trip to central IL.
