Torque Settings for Steel Lug Nuts on Alloy Wheels

Got a new set of cold rolled steel STI lug nuts and was wondering what do they need torqued down to? Read loads of different ones from 65 ft/lb right up to 110 ft/lb!!! Big difference there so if any of the gurus on here can give me the safe torque that would be awesome

Thanks very much

I always go by 130 Nm/95 lb.ft and never had a problem, you could try the Natski method and put them on finger tight, play some wheel nut roulette

- They are on at 93 ft/lb at the minute so not far out!

Exactly the same here, 95lb.ft, not had a wheel overtake me for a lot of years
