my est. would be around 80 lbs (that's what I always torque down to). But check the owners manual, all wheels should be the same.

I didn't have an owners manual where I'm at so the info really helped, thanks a lot.

After you torque them once (using 5 star pattern), take the car for a short ride and then come back and retorque the lugs again to make sure they are setted properly (this is assuming you got new lugs). After that, you should be good to go.

My torque wrench does not have an odd value, they are all even.
