After getting them tight by hand then 2 wacks with a 15 lb lead hammer then apply the safety wire. When the the wire gets tight they are trying to come loose. Most wheel problems are caused by a wheel that does not fit correctly against the front or rear hub. If you can get .002 feeler guage between the wheel and the hub (check different locations) then it will come loose no matter how tight the spinner is torqued. If they fit right then they don't need a massive amount of torque to stay tight.
