Dont forget to start at 50, then 100, and then 160... cause if you dont you will warp the rotors every time. I read this somewhere else years ago and it works! No more brake pedal flutter, been doing this for years without an issue

As a general rule whenever using a torque wrench keep in mind the fasteners need to be re-checked, after heat cycling or in this case driving a hundred miles or so, and keep checking until they stabilize.
They won't move much but often they will move. That's why shops used to reef everything down to 150 yard/tons in the first place, the customer couldn't be bothered to bring anything back after a service. Always check wheel lug nuts before going on a road trip! It only takes a few minutes, torque wrench or not.
