Can anyone tell me what size and type (i.e. deep or not) socket is needed for the wheel lug nuts. I've got a torque wrench now and I want to use a socket so I can stop overtightening them whenever I do a tire rotation.

 

No-one here uses a wrench and socket for wheel lug nuts ???

 

13/16"

you probably need a deep socket so the wrench won't hit tire.

 

its 21mm i belive. if not 21 than 19, i get those two mixed up. its not 13/16" because its a japanese car

 

have you ever usad a 13/16"? i have lots of times. fits just fine and never once had a problem.

 

It's 21mm for stock wheel nuts, not 13/16", you have a Japanese car, everything on the car is metric, so spend a couple of bucks and get the right sockets You will have a problem one day and it only takes "once" to screw up a wheel nut then you have to chisel the sucker off
