    What size is the oem tire iron?

    I lost my tire iron and I want to get an impact wrench and sockets to easily swap winter/summer wheels. I'm guessing I need metric sockets, but what size am I specifically looking for?

    Stock lug nuts are 21mm.

    Impact sockets sometimes don't fit easily into the holes on alloy wheels. I like a thin-wall deep socket for wheels. It's only 75-80 ft/lbs, you don't need a beefy socket.


    Simplify and add lightness.
