Do you mean the nuts that hold the rim to the hub? If so I don't think you need a torque setting all you need is to tighten it up as much as you can with the spanner you carry to remove the wheel if you get a puncture. So many people get hung up with torque settings, on some parts they are important but on others you just need to get them as tight as you can. Just remember what tools your average LD owner had in the fifties
