Since I'm clueless. Would a 1/4th or 1/2 inch torque wrench be better? I'm thinking 10-150lbs should be sufficient.
Go 1/2 inch. Also, get some painter's tape and wrap the outside of the socket to provide a little cushion between it and the wheel. It will help keep you from dinging the inset where the lug nut resides.
