Thanks Chris! I haven't looked at the whole manual in sometime now. I just remember what was applicable to our hub piloted wheels. Just goes to show, when in doubt, read the manual! Having this info online is great, just takes some "searchfu" to ferret it out.

It is recommended to torque to between 450 and 500 foot-pounds. If lubricated with motor oil,
torque should be between 350 and 400 foot-pounds. Note: when dualing steel wheels with Alcoa
aluminum wheels, follow the steel wheel manufacturer's recommendations regarding the proper
torque and use of thread lubricants to mount the wheel.
