Yes, you're supposed to re-tourque them after about 250km. Especially with alloy wheels, the bolts (or nuts) sometimes settle loose. It's a safety thing; I think I've caught one that became "under torqued" over the past 10 years on my vehicles. An airgun is not a torque wrench, a reputable shop would have done a final hand torque to the correct amount.
