Wheel spacer question

Im either blind as a bat or just cant find any info. But whats the torque settings for the spacers? I know the lug nuts for the rim are 89 lbs but what is the proper way to tighten the spacer nuts? thanks!

I haven't seen a torque spec in regards to spacers. I would assume that torquing them to 89 ft-lbs would be a safe bet. I personally would also add a drop or two of blue Loc-Tite to ensure the spacer nuts don't back off on their own.

Same process as the wheels. Go in a star pattern increasing the torque value until you hit 89.
