Chim/Griff wheel nut torque?

[Chris71]

Being a bit anal I thought I'd go round and torque all the wheel nuts up properly on the Chim while I'm putting the new alloys on. Does anyone know what torque they're supposed to be done to?

From memory I do mine at 70 lbs in old money.

seem to remember reading on one page 60, then another 80, so went for middle ground. Anyone?

Haynes Sierra manual (they are basically Sierra hubs after all) quotes for alloy or steel wheels anywhere between 52 - 74 lb ft or thats 70 - 100 Nm

Good thinking. Spent ages looking for TVR info, but it didn't occur to me to Google the Sierra levels.
