Well i got my 18's put on the other day, and the guy told me that about every 100-150 miles to re-torque the lugs? Anyone else heard this?
Are you sure he said "every"? It's a good idea to check them after the first 100 miles.
yea im sure he said every 100 miles.
theres no need to keep checking them, check them once after about 150 and then you'll be good
lol... that would be utterly rediculous. Could you imagine on one of my trips to Florida I'd stop like 12 times just to check lugs...

No... shouldn't YOU be stopping 12 times to check ball joints?
Ahem... no, that would be CV Boots or hub assemblys

Naw just make it rear main seals!
When I got my wheels from tire discounters, They made me come after 50 and 150 so that way it wouldn't void the warranty. They said the reasoning for re-torquing the lugs after 50 and 150 is because new lugs have a tendancy to work themselves loose and after 150 miles the lugs are not new anymore.
