Default wheel torque question

I know the torque settings for the stock wheels is 76 but I don't know if that is the same for aftermarket wheels or not. I have read that torque settings are different for alloy and steel wheels. Can somebody clear this up for me?

IIRC the stock wheels are alloy.

To my knowledge, the wheel doesn't care much about the torque on the lug-- the wheelstud does. So you'll want to torque to 76lbs, just like the OEM wheels.
