Get a torque wrench ASAP, its important that you don't overtighten the lower T-clamp. Torque the center bolt and then just snug the upper and lower bolt. With the bike on the stand, axel in place, and pinch bolts loose, first snug the brake side axel nut to seat the axel, torque the pinch bolts, and then torque the axel nut. Now, spin the wheel and grab the front brake. Hit the right side fork foot with your hand a few times to move it slightly on the axel and allow it to find its natural position, and torque the right side pinch bolts. I have had no problems and excellent fork action using this method.
