no problem.
just a tip..
a cheater bar works very well when taking them off if they are stuck on.

an impact wrench and air compressor's the easiest way

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

last Time I checked a cougar isn't an import

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

This is correct and the lug nut is 13/16

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