Wheel nut torque setting

[2019silverado]

Looked through the existing topics but couldn’t find an answer. Does anyone know the wheel nut torque setting for a 2019 Silverado 1500 High Country? My manual says 140 lbs. Is that too much? I had the tires rotated at the dealer today and he said they torqued them to 110 lbs. I wonder which is correct.

Both of my last 2 trucks were 140, and this is as well, so I'd believe 140.

my '04 sierra fsm says to use 140 ft/lbs for the lug nuts.

140 sounds right, especially if that is what the manual says.

 

Might want to show that page to the tech, so he/she does not ruin someone elses rig.

Yep, 140 ft/lbs.

Thanks everyone. 140 it shall be then.

140 FT.LBS and slap that dealer in the face for improperly torqueing your lugs.

I don't think I would trust a dealer that doesn't know what the torque for the lug nuts are. If they can't get that right what else are they doing wrong. It's not like they don't work on them every day. Even my Traverse requires 140 lbs. of torque.
