Wheel Torque CC 29ir

Just got a new Cedar Creek 29ir. The fifth wheel has standard wheels and tires for the unit -- 16 inch tires, and I believe aluminum wheels.

My dealer told me to torque the wheel to 80 pounds. There is a sticker from the factory on the front of the unit that says the torqued to 110, with a date.

I find information from Lippert and Dexter in all the new unit information and they say 110-120 pounds, but in reading further, that is for steel wheels.

First time I went out, I torqued to 105, and almost all the nuts took 1/8 to 1/4 turn. What is the correct torque, and how that I'm at 105, should I back off to 80 (if that is the correct pressure).

Appreciate that help.

More than likely, the 110 is correct especially considering you have 16" rims.

Was concerned because of the aluminum wheels.
