Adapter torque specs?

When mounting 2" adapters for 4th gen wheels, I have two questions:

1) How many ft/lbs are needed for the adapters to mount to the hub?
2) How many ft/lbs are needed for the wheels to mount to the adapters?

Currently I have everything at 80 ft/lbs. Is that the right torque spec? Honestly this is the first time I have used a torque wrench to mount wheels, and when I've done it 'by hand' in the past I feel that I've always torqued the wheels down a lot more.

I believe the range is 90-120. I use 100 ft/lbs.
