Wheel bolts - 2003 996 Targa
Replacing the OEM wheel bolts on my Targa with 35mm 2 piece titanium bolts. This is to replace the rusted OEM bolts, curious because I don't drive in the rain.

My question is, can anyone tell me the torque amount? I've been told 96 ft/lbs but this is from a non-Porsche owner.

Thanks!

The spec is in your owner's manual around page 208. Look for wheel bolts in the index. It's given as 130 nm which equals 96 ft/lbs.
