Hey Tim, I have attached a chart that shows all of the recommended torque specs for trailer wheels. I am not sure of the exact stud size your 2017 Forest River Thunderbolt uses, but it is probably either 1/2" or 9/16". If they are 1/2" they should be torqued to 90-120 ft lbs. If they are the 9/16" studs it will be 120-140 ft lbs, assuming they are steel wheels. If you have something different you can find the correct torque spec on the chart below.
