My tyre shop has one torque rod-fits-all. 310M staggered - 18" winter wheels. No problem after two years.

Geordie - I don`t know. Is is same torque (same tool - a torque rod) for all cars with our size of screws. BMW has no different material/thread from other manufacturers.

I changed wheels om my 9000:s for 30 years - always used a 40 cm wrench and used "lagom" (reasonable) force - always worked. Just work the screws twice- you don`t want to forget one.
