Lug Nut Torque

Does anybody know the manufacturer's recommended lug nut torque for RX 300 and RX 330? Any information will be greatly appreciated.

IF you have the owners manual you'll find it there if not it's around 75ft.lbs.

Where did you find 75 ft. lbs.? I have searched everywhere including my owner's manual and I couldn't find it. In any case thanks for the info.

Found it in the manual! Thanks RX330inFlorida, 76 ft.-lbs. for both 300 and 330. I just didn't look hard enough.

FWIW, I used the online electronic PDF edition found in the Owner's section of the Lexus web site. Made it easier to search. Took me several tries as the manual is broken into several parts. Somewhat silly in this age of high-speed Internet access.
