Possible play in wheel center and wheel weight could cause imbalance.

This imbalance is reduced to a minimum by installing the somewhat heavier wheel-bolt lock in the top wheel-bolt position.

In this position - wheel stud lock at top, valve at bottom - tighten wheel studs hand-tight in diagonal sequence.

Lower car and tighten wheel bolts crosswise.

Tightening torque 36 10 1AZ.
