Are the Lug Nuts used on the 22 inch wheels the same as for the 18 inch rims?
I am buying a set of 18 inch rims for winter tires and dont know if i can use the lug nuts from my 22 inch wheels.

Thanks!

As said yes you can, the torque is 140 ft lbs on the lug nuts

Wow! 140lbs! isn't that little much for alum wheels? so 140lbs for both stock 22s and 18s?

Pretty normal for GM truck wheels, seems high but that is what it has been forever. :)
