FWIW, I use 65 pounds. Not sure what the actual spec it.

The XJ6 - XJ12 Service Manual, 2nd edition states:
Road Wheel - Alloy: 88 - 102Nm
Road Wheel - Steel: 68 -82Nm

You can download the manual from the top post of the X300 FAQ quick link in this forum.

FTR, 65ft-lbs = 88nm so my recommendation is at the low end of the range.
