Suggestion - go over to Lowes and purchase a breaker bar and a torque wrench with the proper socket for each. I carry a breaker bar in the car under the trunk mat. You do not want to be stuck on the side of the rode with frozen lug nuts.
Shop Kobalt 1/2-in Breaker Bar at Lowes.com
You should check the torque on your lug nuts at least monthly, along with tire pressure. |
