Table row read verbatim: "Wheel Nut Torque | 190 Y | 140 lb ft" (Y = N-m in GM manual notation). Single figure; no steel/aluminum and no spare-wheel variant anywhere in the book. Same manual, printed page 362: "Each new wheel should have the same load-carrying capacity, diameter, width, offset, and be mounted the same way as the one it replaces." Tire sizes named in the tire-chain caution: LT275/65R20, LT235/80R17, LT245/75R17, LT265/70R17, LT275/70R18. No bolt circle, center bore or thread size appears anywhere in the book.

    2020 Chevrolet Silverado Owner's Manual, GM Part No. 84186886 C (read off PDF page 3). COMBINED 1500 + 2500HD/3500HD book for MY2020 - I verified the scope: the Engine Specifications table on the same page lists 2.7L L4 (L3B), 4.3L V6 (LV3), 5.3L (L82/L84), 6.2L (L87) AND the HD-only 6.6L V8 (L8T). "Capacities and Specifications", printed page 456 (PDF page 457 of 495): "Wheel Nut Torque | 190 Y | 140 lb ft", directly under the row "Transfer Case Fluid (2500 and 3500 Series Only)". Because the book is combined, this row is not HD-exclusive - it is a single figure covering 1500 and HD alike (which happens to be 140 lb ft for both).

    GM Service Update N192285970, Revision 01, Release Date January 2020, "Inspect Lug Nut Torque - US Only", "Copyright 2020 General Motors. All Rights Reserved." Models: 2020 Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD. Condition: "Certain 2020 model year Chevrolet Silverado 2500 HD trucks may have lug nuts that are not tightened to specification. This condition may cause the wheel assembly to separate from the vehicle." Service Procedure step 2 reads exactly: "Using a torque wrench and the appropriate socket, alternately and evenly tighten the 8-wheel nuts to 190 N-m (140 lb ft) in a crisscross pattern." This is the only HD-MODEL-SPECIFIC OEM confirmation of the 140 lb ft figure for MY2020 and the only OEM confirmation of the 8-lug count. It does NOT state the bolt circle diameter.
