Buy a long reach 4 way lug wrench. One of the four will fit. The longer the better. And the long handles give extra torque to remove those stubborn nuts. And the “spin factor” speeds things up. Works for your truck also.
The 4 way wrench has a ton of advantages over other wrenches. Though I use something different on my ride.
4 ways come in 3 or 4 sizes. The differences are clear. But the biggest advantage is you can apply pure rotational torque to the nuts.. No "Side" force... Why is this important.
On a Ford 350 Custom 10,000 truck (10 bolt circle bolts .. well my Thumb goes easily through the hole in the rim. and my hands are XXXL) I snapped one of those lugs like a toothpick using a standard (Ford supplied) lug wrench.. The 4-way I'd not have done that.
I have.. "Torqued" (Twisted) a 4 way however when the poor MSP troopers could not get the lugs loose on their patrol car. (I had no problem,,,, Suddenly they gave me a whole lot more respect).
