I don't know exactly how tight in terms of torque, but make sure the alloy nuts are in ok condition as they can seriously deteriorate and eventually distinigrate with the sides can striping off, especially the locking, if this happens you will need a special porsche tool to drill the nuts off. BTDT. Don't use an air gun thingy to put the alloy nuts just a long handled wrench thing.
