Wheel lug torque

Quick question. I have a 2003 Expedition and I was wondering what is the proper torque on the wheel lugs? Any advice would be appreciated.

I believe it's 95-105 Foot pounds of torque.

03 Expy should be 150 Lb-ft of torque. I had my tires changed and I just re-torqued the wheel nuts last weekend.

I believe that came out in recent years in a TSB. They moved it up to 150.

The for maintenance manual I have shows 150 Lb-Ft. I saw somewhere else (I can't recall where) for 21mm lug nuts - 150 Lb-Ft and 19mm lug nuts - 105 Lb-Ft. I'm just going with the maintenance manual.

Thanks for all the information, time to break out the torque wrench and tighten them down a bit more.
