The REFERENCE torque spec on Lexus IS300 lug nuts will be 103 Nm. Please note that different wheel nuts need different torque values. It is highly recommended to consult a tire expert before operating. Typically, a wheel with five lug nuts is tightened in a star-shaped pattern. This ensures an even weight distribution across the wheel mounting plate. As long as you torque them properly, high-quality aftermarket IS300 lug nuts are exactly safe to use.
Generally, there are three types of Lexus IS300 lug nuts: steel nuts, aluminum nuts, and titanium nuts. Aluminum nuts and steel nuts are the most common and cost-effective types. Almost all OEM Lexus lug nuts are made of steel alloy. In comparing the strength of steel and aluminum, technically steel is harder and stronger. Besides, its strength means that it is unlikely to bend or stretch. When crossing bumpy roads, steel IS300 lug nuts can offer more resistance to impact cracks.
