Does anyone know what the correct torque setting is for doing up wheel bolts?

I would'nt normally bother but i recently sheared one and as i've got a torque wrench it makes sense to use it.
 
book says 63 lbf ft, I used 70, although dave's 80 is safe :)
 
I've just tryed 63 and i was surprised how loose it was, so i've done them to 75 which to me still dose'nt feel that tight but thats probaly the reason i sheared one last time.:slayer:
