Sorry guys,
If you want to be snotty OK, I forgot this is a forum, read your own stuff, Regular Grade with cast wheels, not 19" forged wheels. But regardless, good engineering says otherwise. Brian |

What is the reasoning behind tightening forged wheels tighter than cast?

You'll be fine at 80lbs there is no reason to caveman them any tighter on unless you want to end up with stripped lug-nuts or studs
never mind the fukin hernia you're going to get trying to get them off in an emergency! |

This table from TireRack seems to imply that lug nut torque is based solely on the stud size, not wheel type or nut type. I have seen this table on several sites.
