I think 80 foot pounds is correct across the board for all Hondas.

80 foot pounds dry, do not oil them, it throughs off your reading. I twisted off a stud on a friend's car using oil and a torque wrench.

also use cross pattern tightening each gradually as to not warp rotor. also get any road debris off of inner wheel face, etc. so wheel sits flush on rotor.
