Lug nut torque

I have a 45 foot sportscoach legend with a freightliner chassis and just replaced my goodyear tires with Michelin 295/88r22.5 all around. Does anyone know what lug nut torque I should be using on the front tires?

Take a look at the lug nuts.. If they have a captive washer behind them (The washer is attached to the nut) it often has some printing cast into it's metal.

450 Foot pounds is what it says on my washers.
Home was where I park it. but alas the.

dpscll,
Well Sir, on our '04 Itasca Horizon with the 330 CAT, it states right on each lug nut "450" lbs. Not sure if yours does or not but, you might take a look.

When I was truck driving before I retired, I was running Michelin XZE front and back and our truck shop would torque the lugs on the wheel at 475 ft-lbs. Hope this helps you.
