88lb/ft according to the tyre fitting boys, personaly I use 90lb/ft(dont want these coming loose now then do I).

This bulletin board needs a spell checker, for us un-educated fools

Agree with Raymond. 70 lb/ft is plenty and the standard Scoob nuts don't take kindly to much more than this, and neither do alloy wheels (which is why standard wheels have a steel seat).
