17mm deep socket - check.
Brick - check.

Thank you.

Thank you.

wrap your deep socket with masking tape so that you dont scratch your
wheel lug bores.

dont even bother buying those sockets with plastic sleeves.

i have them too, but they are kinda thick for certain wheels, and the sleeve
slips off after some use. masking tape ftw
