Steel wheel lug nut torque for a P80?

[scot850]

I am just swapping the wheels over for the summers on a friends car (they have got it backwards with summers on steels and winters on the alloys??). When I had steel wheels back in the dark ages, I had different lug nuts for the steels (as per thread with foggydogg?) where they had shorter heads and were black steel and not chrome. The shorter heads were to allow Volvo wheel covers to fit (they don't on the long chrome headed lug bolts).

Anyway back to the point. While I don't have an option I don't like using the same lug bolts on steels and alloys as the seating face on steel wheels is much narrower and there is a potential for damaging the seating faces and in turn the alloy seats on alloy wheels.

That then led me to the question, should steel wheel lug bolts be torques to a higher value than 110Nm (approx. 80ft/lb) same as alloys or should they be higher?

Thanks,

Neil.
