Looks great! The best breaker bar I have found is a 4-D Cell Maglight! Works every time for anything stingy!

As far as the lug nut go, try some PB Buster. It's kind like wd40 but on crack. I used this when i did my motor swap on my honda. It works like freakin magic! Just spay it on leave it over night and bam..should work. Might save you a trip to the shop. Good looking corners, I can't wait to get some!

90ft/lbs is the spec I believe. Most shops don't want the liability of a wheel coming off, and you coming after the shop, so from their position, tighter is better.

Oh yeah, speaking of wheels coming off, don't forget to retorque after 50 miles or so, ESPECIALLY with alloys. They'll kinda settle into position in the first few miles after bolting a wheel on, and even if you torque to spec, I'd almost guarantee you'll get a little more out of them when you go back for round two.
