Whenever I switch over wheels/tires at tire store, they always tell me to come back after 50-100 kms for retorque. I generally do.

BUT whenever I have work done at mechanic that involves taking off wheel like rotors, brakes, etc. They NEVER tell me to come back for a retorque ...

Anyone know why?
