Torque on nut?

[norwegian]

So I am going to change to winter tires soon. It's a saloon 4 door car.
How much torque do I apply to a nut that you use a 21mm wrench on?
Can anyone answer on a general basis?

My dad's Audi calls for 100 ft-lbs or 135 Nm.

Norwegian it really depends on the diameter of the bolt. What make and model of vehicle?

 

[norwegian]

Toyota Avensis, I guess it's avalon or something over there?
Don't know the diameter of the bolt or how the threads are.

go with 70 to 80 ft/lbs bud..100 is way to much.
Anyways have this for you

Thanks, 80 ft/lbs seems about right which is 109 nm, was thinking about 110 nm.
The clutch bolt on my sleds is 120 nm initially..

I'm wondering if the Audi having wheel bolts instead of studs with nuts makes that difference?

No it does not matter bolts or nuts 85 to 100 ft/lb is good
