HOW TO USE:

• Ensure Proper Wheel Alignment: Position the Alcoa aluminum wheel correctly onto the wheel studs.
• Hand-Tighten the Lug Nut: Place the Phoenix USA 39946 lug nut over a wheel stud and hand-tighten it clockwise until it is snug against the wheel. Repeat this for all lug nuts on the wheel.
• Use a Torque Wrench: Consult your vehicle or wheel manufacturer’s specifications for the correct torque value. Using a torque wrench with a 1-1/16″ socket, tighten each lug nut in a star pattern (opposite nuts tightened sequentially) to the specified torque. This ensures even pressure distribution.
• Re-Torque After Initial Use: After driving a short distance (typically 50-100 miles), it is recommended to re-check and re-torque the lug nuts to ensure they have not loosened.
