Got a nail in the tire. For the life of me I cant find a tire iron that will fit! When they were shipped to me came with tires on alerady and checked my volk baggy and have no lug key or anything.

Anybody got a suggestion?

they look like regular 6 point lugs... To me they look like 3/4. stock is 13/16.

THATS WHAT I SAID. Looked completely normal regular 6pt.

The idiots who came out from AAA tried telling me it wasnt. I thought I was going out of my mind.

if they're tuner lugs, they might be 19mm instead of the stock size.

those are the stock ones. they are either 19 or 21mm

I'd say a 6 iron would do. Maybe even 7.

See the issue is my stock tire iron wont fit it, nor the other 3 I have at my house. The people AAA sent out last night didnt have there thinwall ones on there truck last night.

How about a breaker bar (if necessary)/extension bar/socket....

I go this route when I want to be extra careful about possibly scratching a wheel.

go pick up a thin wall 19 and 21 mm socket. combine with rachet and torque down. I don't understand whats so hard. You're making this very complicated. How did you get the wheels on your car?

oh I see what you are saying. Yeah get you a thin wall socket.

Nothing is complicated about it...

My wheel's actually bounced onto my car themselves, they float.


On a serious note, I was trying to understand what exactly the AAA guy was saying to me, telling me they had a luglock and I was telling him no they are a completely normal 6pt.

I have a torque wrench and finally found a 13/16 thinwall =)

Most likely like any of the other tuner lugs. They will use a standard socket like 17/19/21 mm. You just need a long handle wrench, extension and regular socket.

Those are stock lugs 21mm. You need a thin wall 21mm to remove them. You can try and see if your local tool supplier has one. If not most shops have this socket so just buy smaller lug nuts and take it to your local shop to have them switch it out. FYI you're not supposed to use that size lug for that rim. This is why you buy aftermarket lugs that are 19mm to fit the smaller hole. Even a thin wall socket will come close to the rim so theres risk of scratching the rim.

^Yep, need thin walled socket. Dunno what size though... get some extended lugs!!!
