Do your bolts have a different torque when used on the steel spare wheel?

Yes there is a difference, 65 ft lbs for steel and 96 ft lbs for alloy wheels. The bolts must be marked 10.9 for alloy wheels but can be used for steel wheels.

Same as mine.

That's right, on plate by door, 88 nm steel 130 nm for alloy, (65 ft and 96 ft) using same bolts.otherclive said:JayTea said:110Nm for steel and 120Nm for alloy which equates in old money to 81 ft-lb for steel and 88.5 ft-lb for alloy
At some point after 2012 Swift announced an increase for alloy bolt torque to 130Nm and sent a sticker to go in the Owners Manual.
