Excellent!

So just use the star pattern to tighten the lugs and start with a lower value, then work the way up....

I am just a bit confused when you say that after it clicks (Where you set it and then tighten...), you do it once and hear a click.. then you are supposed to stop right? (YOu say that most people stop and then repeat the process again... wouldn't that overtorque?)

Sorry for my ignorance!
