Key takeaways

  • Torque: 65 to 94 ft-lbs for the 1995 to 2002 model years.
  • Tighten in a star (criss-cross) pattern so the wheel seats flat.
  • Re-check torque after 50 to 100 miles.
  • Aftermarket wheels or lug nuts can specify a different value - use the wheel maker's figure if it differs.

How to torque Mazda Millenia wheels

  1. Hand-thread every lug nut, then snug them lightly with the wheel off the ground.
  2. Lower the car until the tire just touches and cannot spin.
  3. Set the wrench to 65 to 94 ft-lbs and tighten in a star pattern, skipping to the opposite nut each time.

  5. Re-check after 50 to 100 miles.
