Just came from Big O Tires. Should be called "Big O Load of B.S."! Had them swap the alloys from the '88 Westy to the Michelins from the '90 Westy, and then the Big O crap tires to the steel wheels, mount them on the '88 and I take the alloys home to re-mount on the '90. Seems simple enough. NOT! Had to keep an eye on them all the time. They kept calling it a Eurovan and wanting to use EV specs. So, I have looked in Bentley, my owners manual, Haynes, and can't find any special torque value for the alloys. Are they different, or the same as the stock steel wheels, and is that 123FtLb or 133FtLb? I find both values. Thanks for the help. Jerry
