    Yeah 80 is cool. I've had my 17s torqued to 80 since they were new with no problems.

    80lbs of torque, thats the official recommendation, stock or aftermarket.. just remember to retorque your wheels after a couple of hundred miles though.. 100 lbs goes to a lot of trucks and most GM vehicles.

    ::scratches his head:: still trying to figure out where phillipguru got 72-76...
