The recommended torque for the lug nuts on a 2016 Kia Soul is between 70 and 80 ft/lbs according to the factory specifications. It is important to exercise caution when installing or removing them to prevent damage. Tightening them too much can cause them to break or become stripped, especially if they are old or corroded. Stripped lug nuts will just spin in place, making it difficult to remove them. If this occurs, using a hydraulic press may be necessary, but this could harm the wheel. If the bolts snap, the rotor must be removed to take them out from the back. These issues can be easily avoided by being careful.
