__ I was impressed to find my lug nuts torqued correctly ! !

  1. I had a Honda dealer in Edmonton rebalance my wheels while I was having
    a safety inspection done. What a shock when I got it home and found that
    all five bolts on all four wheels were torqued correctly. Last time I
    let anybody change my tire at a dealer (Dodge Caravan) it took a ten
    foot piece of pipe on my 1/2" drive handle to crack them loose. It
    sounded like firing off a .22 rifle when they broke free. (but do I ever
    feel safer knowing the mechanic didn't want to risk my wheel falling
    off). Yeah, right.

    And people say there's no way a rotor could be damaged by
    over-torqueing!
