Wheel nut torque

New guy here, sorry if this has been asked before...

What is the recommended torque for the wheel nuts on a 2019 Civic sedan Touring? The wheels are OEM, tire size is 23/40 R18. And would the torque spec be the same for winter tires on aftermarket alloy wheels. I have searched the owners manual for this info but couldn't find it.

I'd torque them to 80-85 ft-lbs and call it a day

I've checked three different service manuals for older Honda vehicles, all say 80 lb-ft.

Thanks for the quick reply.

After I posted this inquiry, I noticed at the bottom of the page "Related Topics", and the answer was also in there.

Thanks again

Thanks BroatoChip. In the manual for all the other cars I have owned, the torque spec was there. But in my 2019 Civic manual I was unable to find it. 80 lb-ft it will be.
