Bentley says 85 foot pounds.
1981 and 1984 manuals say 72-100 pounds.
None of these manuals differentiate between Turbo and steel wheels.

You guys who have owned a bunch of these cars will know. Should I go with 85 for both kinds of wheels, or maybe 75 for the Turbo wheels and 85 for steel? I use a tiny bit of Never Seize on the lugs (threads only).
