Will this work for changing my wheels?
Hello, yes I am a noob...but I'm trying!
I just want to know if this setup will work to put on my new wheels. I have two set of oem wheels, and I'm changing from my winters. I just want to know if this socket and torque wrench will be good..will I also need an extension, since the socket is deep? Thanks! https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B000N...?ie=UTF8&psc=1 https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0019...?ie=UTF8&psc=1 |
You shouldn't need an extension, but it might make it more comfortable to have one.
Also get a breaker bar or a tire iron to remove the lugs. You don't want to use the torque wrench to remove the lugs. |
Is something wrong with the tools in your trunk?
All I have is the scissor jack that came with the car, the speed handle for the scissor jack, and a 4 way tire iron I bought. All zip tied together, to my spare. And j use this setup quite a bit to swap out wheels. Doesn't bother me one bit. But then again I did this in Japan all the time on the mountains. Not tryin to be a **** at all, just letting you know all the tools you need are in your trunk, except for the torque wrench of coarse |
Thanks for the responses guys, guessing I'm good? My main concern was the socket.
I am not using the torque wrench for removing the wheels, I bought a tire iron for that. The tools in my trunk are fine, my post only asks if the socket and torque wrench will work. I am just trying to torque them down to spec, and need a proper socket to do so, as my regular 19mm socket doesn't fit in, so I'm looking at that deep one. |
Yes those tools are fine
