In order to determine the torque rating for the lug nuts on your trailer you will need to know check out the chart I attached that shows all of the torque specs for all the trailer lugs available based on stud size, wheel material and wheel size.

@AnthonyP This specific chart we found online over a decade ago so I am not sure I could find the primary source at this point.

1-5/16”(33mm) Nut on M22 x 1.5 wheel studs should be torqued to 450-500 ft./lb.
