Lug nut washers

Wheel holes are good. Will lug nut washers help to keep them like that or are they a bad idea for use on good holes?

I have always added them no matter the condition of the wheel. Torque lug nuts to 55 or 60 ft lb.

Never have had a problem with wheels loosing up or paint chips.

If you do add washers, that would be a good time to check the torque on your rear axel nuts. I torque them to 100 ft lbs.

Using lug nut washers is like motor oil or STP/Marvel Mystery Oil. There are many strong different opinions. Enjoy.

It is funny how many different opinions on this. Look at the descriptions of the washers on all the different websites that sell them. They all say different things about them. Confusing at best but I have them on mine and always check the torque. I have use 64 ft lbs as a standard torque.
