Default Off topic---mechanics plese help

Need to know the tq setting for wheel lugnuts for a 2001 Toyota Sienna. Can anyone make a safe guess? I dont have a manual and dont want to join another post just to answer one question. Plus I get much good advice from the Corvtte Forum.

7/16 lugs....3-4 taps with a 1/2 inch impact....
