Suggestion
Triple-square bit, 145 INCH lbs in two-steps, run a tap through the threads in the barrel before re-assembling to clean them out, and use blue loctite not red.

on a wheel lug nut,way to many potential problems can come from it .If you use anti seize on any fastener know that it will affect the tightness of your fastener .

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Talked to a representative from BBS and advised to double check the threads of each titanium bolt.. Also, to use Loctite blue on each bolt before torque to specifications.
I have long appreciated the unusual factory paint offerings the orange one looks great in garage next to the Ocean Jade Metallic and Pastel Yellow examples.

Sorry guys this is not the unusual paint colors thread. This is the unusual BBS wheel colors thread.
Powder coated flat black by previous owner...I'm rolling with it figuratively and literally!
When repainting our Sport Classic IIs might paint the edges black just like that but center spokes body color. We like the stance of cars with about 60 series tires and might create the illusion of that.
I think you are a bit off on torque specs.I have these same wheels and the torque specs are 95 Ft Lbs and should be tightened in a star pattern
to evenly mount the wheel .It can keep the rotors from warping also.13/14 ft lbs would be closer to torque specs for a spark plug [18 Ft Lbs] .
If you use the lower specs don't turn your radio on so you can hear the wheels making noise as the lug nuts back off.I would never use lock tite
on a wheel lug nut,way to many potential problems can come from it .If you use anti seize on any fastener know that it will affect the tightness of your fastener .
Any anti seize or lube should only be done if manufacturer recommends it .Correct torque specs should keep the wheels on. Its not hard to find the
correct fastener torque specs for virtually every nut and bolt on a car [ shop manual ] ,your torque wrench should be
calibrated periodically based on use . I get my snap on torque wrenches calibrated yearly.

Anyone who references torquing to anywhere near 100 FOOT lbs or silicon sealant doesn’t understand the question.
