Hi Guys,

I have both the Trigos and the Superformance wheels. I use the 12mm allen head wrench on them both. The Trigo sleeves were never a problem but, the SPF versions did have a tendency to round out under torque when I was tightening them. The other issue was when I was removing the Trigos and putting on the SPF adapters, studs and wheels the studs, on one of the wheels came loose, required an air wrench to take them off and on.

I used 50 ft. lbs. and have checked them several times since with no loosening, I did not use locktite but, I did use anti sieze on all of the surfaces.

Just call me the man with the silver fingers...

Tony R.
