When working on a 2003 Honda Accord, make sure to tighten the lug nuts to 80 ft-lbs. It's important to be careful not to overtighten or damage them, especially if they are old or rusted. Over-tightening can lead to snapping or stripping the lug nuts, making them difficult to remove. If you strip them, they will spin in the socket and become stuck. This would require using a mechanical press to push them out, potentially damaging the wheel. If a nut snaps, you may have to remove the wheel rotor to unthread it from the back. Avoiding these issues is simple if you are cautious during the process.
