yup
and when you recheck them just check 'em at 80-90 ft lbs or approx 10lbs less than what you initially torqued 'em too....idea is to not bust the thread lock once they've been set

I ran them at (really really tight) foot lbs of torque. Never backed off and the thread lock worked well. I have since bought a torque wrench and have all my wheels and tires at 100 ft lbs. I sold the spidertrax for properly BS rims.
