Ponch,

FWIW:
My 16's were torqued to 120 ft/# and my 17.5 are also torqued to 120 because I bought wheels which still use the 9/16" lug bolts which came on my 8000# axles. Had I gone with Alcoa's which would have required switching to 5/8" lug bolts the torque would have changed. I do not know off the top of my head what the torque is for the 5/8" lug bolts.
