Genesis GV80 lug nut torque
The Genesis GV80 takes a lug nut torque of 101–116 lb-ft (137–157 N·m, 14–16 kgf·m) on its wheel bolts; the 2021–2027 manuals all say the same. Tighten them in a star pattern with a torque wrench.

How to tighten them
- Clean any dirt or rust off the bolts and the wheel’s mounting face. Don’t oil them unless the manual says to.
- Thread every bolt in by hand until it seats against the wheel.
- Lower the vehicle so the tire takes its weight, and set a torque wrench to 101–116 lb-ft (137–157 N·m).
- Tighten the bolts in a star pattern, going around two or three times, until the wrench clicks on every bolt.
- Check the torque again after a short drive if your manual says to.

Questions
What is the lug nut torque on a Genesis GV80?
101–116 lb-ft (137–157 N·m), as printed in Genesis’s owner’s manuals (2021–2027).
Can I use an impact wrench?
Not to finish. An impact wrench can’t set a torque and easily overshoots it, which stretches studs. Run the nuts down by hand or lightly, then finish with a torque wrench in a star pattern.
Should I oil the wheel bolts?
Not unless the manual says so. Torque values assume clean, dry threads; oil lets the same torque stretch the bolt further. Some manuals, Kia’s and Mazda’s among them, say to keep oil and grease off wheel nuts and bolts altogether.
