Standard SRT-8 lug nut size (for socket)

[Steve Levin]

I know it's silly, but I can't seem to find a spec for the lug nuts...I'm getting a torque wrench and need to pick up a socket for it...but I don't know which size!

They're 21mm. I'd suggest getting a 1/2" drive too cuz the torque is 110 ft lbs. I broke my 3/8" drive torquing them before.

thanks!

110 ft/lb to torque them? that seems pretty stiff. I thought with the lugnut style we have you used 65ft/lb as a general rule.

As per the Service Manual it's definately 110 and it's the same for the 300C as well BTW.

My Camaros was 100 so 110 doesn't seem unusual. Plus, if it's in the book go for it! Also...recheck them in the next day or two to see they're hanging on tight!
