Don't suppose anyone knows off the top of their head what torque 110 Defender wheel nuts need to be with Boost alloys? Can't find it anywhere online

Buying a new torque wrench and need to know if it goes high enough

My local garage had a chart that they looked up that said the same as what ian152 said, but also had on it 150nm for "heavy duty" land rover alloys. No idea what these would be, but since my front offside came loose at 130 I cranked her up to 150 and she stays put.
