The almera (quoted from the Haynes manual) is 110 nm or 81 lb/ft. On my torque wrench the nearest line is 120nm so I use this rather than turning it round to get it exactly to 110.
This is a common torque setting for most cars. Glad to see someone is using a torque wrench, and not an air driven impact wrench like most garages do. This is dangerous as it overtightens the bolts, which lead to bolts snapping and seizing. Mechanics are too lazy to use the proper tools.
Additional note, a *small* amount of copper grease will make sure the bolts do not rust and seize and make it easier for wheel changes next time round!
Hope this helps
