I beleive 75 ft lb is the factory recommendation. I use aftermarket wheels/tires and tighten to 80 ft lbs.
Probably anything in the 75-85 range is about right.

By the way, got any pics of your car with the new wheels? I want to get sidepipes and am considering TTIIs and could do with an example

Buy a torque wrench and get them all the same. An inexpensive one can be purchsed for under $20. It may not be as exact as a Snap On, but is still better than guessing.
