What Size Are The Lug Nuts?


bent my cheap ass lug wrench that ford gave me and none of them on my 4 way seem to fit too well. what size are these i looked in the owners manual the only thing i saw said 1/2 X 20. i dont know what the hell that means.

I dont understand why i cant break any of these loose i put them on by hand why the hell cant i get them off. anyway time for the fucking air gun we will see how tough these little pricks are now. but was size socket?

1/2 x 20 is the thread pitch of the studs and it is more then likely a 21mm(13/16) socket

you must be driving an import, my studs are 1/2" or bigger.


What was said above was correct

And it is a 21mm socket, or a 13/16

1/2 is the diameter of the stud and 20 is how many threads there are per inch of stud

Use a breaker bar and put some metal pipe on the handle if they are that bad.
