Best Lug Nut Socket for 2020 M5C
Any suggestions best lug nut for our OEM wheels? Deep enough and non-scratching if possible.
Also, I did not notice any lug nut socket included with the car--2020 M5C (I am the original owner). Finally, is it 100 ftlbs for torque? Thanks! |

Just purchased a 1/2" Drive 17mm, deep socket and will use electrical tape to help avoid scratches.
Also, I contacted my local BMW Dealer and they do not sell any such part. |

I always had long wheel studs on my M3's and I found this years ago and I really like it: Laser Tools 6908 Alloy Wheel Nut Socket 17mm x 130mm. The cheapest I could find it recently was on eBay here. I bought it from www.thetoolacademy.com the first time.
I like it even without the long studs in the way because it is extra deep so the torque wrench does not come close to the rims and I do not need an extender. It is a thin wall socket with the plastic protector so it fits in the wheel holes easily. |
