dependant on the quality of the said impact gun, that might not be tight enough  :lipsrsealed:

I wouldn't trust an impact gun full stop for wheel bolts, you should always check them by hand afterwards.

With a torque wrench. Impact guns (and my 4' 10" Aunt) can generate enough torque to strip threads.
