Anywhere between 80-90ft/lbs is good. BTW it's spelt torque.

80-90 is good for the street ive seen the studs break at that high torque on the track but if you dont track it its fine. Sadly nissan decided it would be a great idea to make weak wheel studs on a sports car.

If it's like the other Volk wheels, the recommended torque is around 75 ft-lbs.

What'd you do jump on the breaker bar? 80 lb/ft is not that tight at all. Think theres a DIY write up on changing out the lugs. GL.

More than a Honda could generate at the wheels.
