My spreadsheet lists them at 16.2 Ftlbs. (22Nm)

BMW service manual lists it at 24Nm...

I would exercise caution with these bolts, even if using a torque wrench. I changed my front bobbins recently and bought new stainless bolts. One of the threads in the wheel felt like it was starting to yield even when torqued up correctly. The bolts should have thread locker so any remnants of this from the old bolts should be cleaned out with a tap.

I appreciate the info, I looked into the holes and there is some leftover thread locker down there.
