Torque note: Kia publishes a RANGE, not a single figure: 79-94 lbf·ft (11-13 kgf·m, 107-127 N·m). lugTorque 87 is the midpoint (12 kgf·m = 86.8 lbf·ft), following the file's precedent for range specs (Hyundai Tucson, Durango, Ram SRT-10). Any value inside 79-94 is OEM-compliant. The 2023 manual states one figure for both wheel types: "Steel wheel & aluminum alloy wheel: 79 ~ 94 lbf·ft (11 ~ 13 kgf·m)" (compact spare included). Gas, Hybrid and Plug-in Hybrid tables print the same range.

Will 5x115 (5x4.53) wheels fit a Sportage?
