Putting on rims question!

shawnono · 06-01-2008, 02:27 AM

I've just recently purchased a set of 04 RSX rims and since these are my first set of rims (previous cars all had hubcaps) I was wondering if there is a certain way or distinct way to put each rim on the car? Does every rim have to line up the same way? or can one simply just put them on however they want? thanks for the feed back.

ya shiny side looking towards you. Make sure that u put the rims on straight on the studs, and tork them down properly, that is the most important thing so your wheel wont fly off on the road! Usually when u put in the lug nuts in you tork them in the X pattern if that make sense, Not one after another. Make shure When u jack up the car preferably put it on the jack stand instead of it being on the jack, put your E-brake on too. And that is About it.
