I changed the brake pads today. Does anyone know what the torque is for the wheel lug nuts. I've got the plain ole factory 15" alloys.

100 ft-lbs
straight out of the Haynes manual. you should pick one up...as should everyone else. It's really helpful for stuff like this. :)

Thanks for the quick reply!!
I really want to get a Factory Service Manual. The Haynes and Chilton's are ok, but I've got a Service Manual for our Jeep Grand Cherokee, more useful information than any Haynes or Chiltons. Anyone have a source to get Factory Service Manual for the Alero??

It should be in the owner's manual, too. I knew it was 100 ft-lbs, but I'm not sure how. If you read through that manual, it has lots of crazy (and some usefull) stuff.
