Anyone know the torque specs for the tpm sensors? And while I am at it the wheels?

Torque Specifications:

Lug/Wheel nuts - (24mm hex)
81 ft/lbs
Oil Filter - 14Nm (10.3 ft/lbs)
Oil Sump nut (Drain Plug) - 65Nm (48 ft-lb)

Don't have anything for TPMS but I believe it was in one of the wheel swap threads somewhere.

I found this on the Hanco site...

  • On vehicles with tire pressure sensors within the wheel, sensor nut and valve cores must be torqued to specified inch pounds.
Cores must be at 0.13 - 0.27 ft. lbs. (0.17-0.37 N.m).

Found other sites that specified 1/4" Inch Pound for the correct torque

Thank you for the help. I read thru posts and cube states 8nm .tire rack told me 4nm which translates to 35.4 inch pounds.I did not mount the tires yet.but good news I found a cheap source of tpm sensors. It was confirmed by Tire Rack but since I have yet to mount them can't personally confirm it.
oh the source is cheaper than tirerack.
