Tire torque settings



Hello All, 

in the owners manual, it says that one should be sure to tighten the lugnuts 
on the wheels to 70 lb/ft after replacing the wheel. how important is this? 
i would like to work on my speedo while my D is in storage, but i don't have 
a torque wrench. is it safe to just tighten them snugly with a tire iron in 
a criss-cross pattern, but being careful not to over tighten them? or should 
i be cautious and follow the book 'to the T'...?
