1999 - S320 Allow Wheels.. What size Socket ?
hi guys,
well, i just went to change my brake pads, and, I do not have a tool to remove the lug nuts from my alloy wheels. the stock lug nut wrench in the tool kit in the trunk is way too small.., plus, the socket will have to be pretty thinwall to get in where the lugs are .
anyone have any idea what I should use to get the lug nuts off ?
thanks,
Kevin Rea

well, how abut that....
I figured it out with the help of my mechanic who I called over at Mr. MB Motors in the San Fernando Valley.
He knew right off what it was..
all of the lug nuts have fake caps on them.
he said just pry them off with two small screwdrivers, and boom... he was right on the money.
The stock lug nut wrench fits right on...
thanks guys,
kevin
