That’s a big peeve for us around here. These guys with the impact wrenches slamming on the lugs. Then going back with a torque wrench set at some
way lower (but proper)level and “clicking” on all the nuts. “Yes sir - Factory spec. That’s what their tightened to.” My ass.
Had a kid at an oil change joint read the
max load at max psi on the side of a set of tires, and then fill them to that. 85psi, I think it was. Thank God I caught that one before I hit the brakes on a wet street. I think it gave me about a 4 square inch contact patch per tire on a Dodge Ram 1500.
