Oddly enough, I just posted on this subject in a different topic. It applies here too, so here ya go:
==============
One last tip - which may get me flamed - don't use a torque wrench for "little" bolts like this. I have gotten myself into more trouble than I care to discuss by using the proper tool. (No that's not a typo.) The extra leverage of the wrench can end up masking the true force you are applying to such a small bolt, and most of the time, it just doesn't need to be that tight, or at a very specific torque setting! Use a 1/4 or 3/8 hand ratchet, snug them all down evenly, and then a little past "snug". Use anti-sieze if possible, especially on aluminum threads. If using LocTite please ONLY use the blue stuff (the red stuff should be banned.)
If you insist on a torque wrench, make sure the threads are all clean and DRY- use NO anti-sieze or other stuff - and maybe set the wrench a little lower than spec. Also, the wrenches are most accurate at the top of their rated range, so be VERY VERY careful if using a wrench rated (for example) 20-100 lb-ft on a bolt set to 25 lb-ft!! Much better to use one rated (for example) 5-30 for a 25 lb setting. Many are off as much as 20 percent in the lower rating range.
IMO, the torque wrench should be saved for "big" bolts like head bolts, suspension stuff, etc that are about M8 or bigger. Oh, and DEFINITELY use one EVERY TIME when torquing your alloy wheel lug bolts! That is actually the #1 use of my 1/2-inch torque wrench.
Let the flames begin!
