Can't find the torque settings for my wheel nuts in my owners manual.

E36 328i Sport (July 95)

18" rims if that makes difference.

Anyone help??

Torque settings?

I thought ramping them up tight was enough?? Or if your Kwik Fit then blasting a couple hundred psi through the gun so Goliath has trouble getting them back off

Anything between 100-115nm will be fine Steve, I always set mine to around 110nm.
