Frequently asked questions What is the typical wheel lug torque for a Dodge and Ram? Across 48 Dodge and Ram models it ranges from 65 to 148 lbf·ft (88–200 N·m). Torque varies by model and year, so use the table above rather than a single value.
Do all Dodge and Ram models use the same torque? No. Dodge and Ram uses 13 distinct torque values across the model years 1990–2025 listed here.
Do these figures apply to greased threads? Torque figures apply to clean, dry threads. Do not grease, oil or anti-seize the studs unless the manufacturer explicitly calls for it — lubricant can raise clamping force well beyond the target and stretch or snap a stud.
