Check the actual lugnut, it should be imprinted on there, i think the standard is 100-120, but my memory isnt the best, coulda been 80-100.

THANK YOU ALL.

I just found out from the ford service manual that

12mm bolts get 100 ft lbs.

14mm bolts get 150 ft lbs.

My wheels have the 14mm (5 bolt)

Thanks for all the answers!
