FUNNY !
When I last took mine to the local Chrysler dealer to have the wheels balanced on their dynamic road force balancer, I handed the tech my torque wrench with 17mm socket and extension set to 82 ft/lbs to put them back on.
He said he'd been doing balancing for 22 years, and no one had EVER asked to have the bolts torqued before. ( He actually said he thought it was a good idea )
