It is not the style of wheel that creates the torque specs, it is the thread pitch of the stud. The wheel does not make a difference. Here is a run down by thread pitch for torque specs.
12mm 95 ft. lbs
14x1.5mm 110 ft. lbs
14x2.0mm 140 ft. lbs
7/16 75 to 85 ft. lbs
1/2 85 to 95 ft. lbs
9/16 105 to 115 ft. lbs
5/8 135 to 145 ft. lbs
Hope this helps.

12mmx1.5 uses 95 ft. lbs of torque. Check the torque for the first 25 miles and then again at 50, if torque is maintained you should be good to go, if not check your lug seat area on the wheel for any problems.
