The new spec is 120 Nm +/- 10 Nm.
The old spec was 100 Nm +/- 10 Nm.
I continue to use 72 lb-ft.

Would these specs be fine for non M wheels I assume

With no real way to know which is best, I split the difference and do 80 lb-ft.
I've used 80 lb-ft since I got the black car.

Considering how many times I've changed the tires (eight times+ a month during autocross season), I'd have to say that 80 lbs works okay.
