5lbs less than your wife can develop when needing to mount the spare
I usually use 75 or 80 ft/lbs on all my cars.
Bolts that are too tight make an emergency tire change a big problem.

You must like Las Vegas.
I would not take a gamble that my tires are going to stay on using 10-15 less ft/lbs then recommended. Unless you use anti-seize compound on the hubs, your wife will not be able to get the wheel off after a year or so anyway (even with all the lugs out).
