the bolts should not shift after being torqued properly. Might sound like a dumb question, but are you using the torque wrench on the nut side of the bolt?

what wheels are those? (I like them and want to know, not related to your issue)

something isn't right, they should not be loosening up on their own, at all.... who is doing your alignment? a shop? I used to do alignments, and if a customer had your issues, I would look at the eccentric cams, something isn't right
