Anyone know what the stud size is on our S 550 mustangs and the recommended tq on the lugs?

I Bleed Ford Blue 5 Year Member Feb 13, 2017 406 119 73 North Olmsted OH Mar 6, 2018 #8 Mar 6, 2018 #8 Thank you. I'm not surprised that it's 150, given the stud size. Now I know when I take off my wheels for whatever reason.
