Yes! A torque wrench is essential. Also, if you’re uncertain, a shop can help confirm the alignment for you.
I once swapped tires without checking the pattern! It was a disaster. Lesson learned: always verify first.

Oh no! Glad you’re okay! It’s funny how learning the hard way sticks with you.
Hey, could anyone explain how a wrong bolt pattern might affect your vehicle’s performance?
It can compromise brake performance and cause uneven tire wear over time.
Wow, I never knew that! I thought it was just a fitting issue. This community is seriously informative!
Glad you’re finding it helpful! We all learn from each other here. Keep asking!
This thread makes me laugh; I can just picture someone driving with warped wheels because of mix-ups. Lesson of the day: measure twice, install once!
Haha, that’s a great motto! I’ll have to keep that in mind, especially for future installs.
