Pretty much every Benz for decades has had the wheel bolt torque spec for 80lbs.

Use a good quality clicker-style torque wrench.

And don't forget to tighten in a star pattern.

80 or 81 ft/lbs would be correct. The only exceptions in the US that I am aware of are the following chassis numbers:
220 S class, 215 CL class, 163 M class, 140 S class. These are 110 ft/lbs. The bolts are a larger diameter on these cars.

Thank you all!

Thanks for everyone's help. I always like to check the small stuff. I hate when the tire shops ignore stuff like that.
