ARES 59000-5-Piece 1/2-Inch Drive Non-Marring Impact Lug Nut Socket Set - Protective Sleeves and Inserts Prevent Damage to Wheels and Lugs - Storage Rail Included

Great socket ,to big for what i needed

The media could not be loaded. Perfect for removing expensive lug nuts from expensive wheels!! Gets the job done without damaging the paint and lug nuts. The vinyl protective sleeve safeguards the wheel's finish, while the rounded interior edges of the socket prevent damage to the edges of my gold titanium lug nuts which were torqued to 100ft lbs; the socket WILL hold up!Great investment!

Socket for 19mm. Works as designed.

These worked great till my 21mm cracked after 3 years of use.

This socket fits perfectly into both vehicles I have where there was a danger of scratching the rim around the lug nut holes. This socket with the sleeve on is slightly thinner than my other impact sockets. It's sturdy and I don't see any danger of cracking it on properly torqued lug nuts except............. when it was delivered the socket had a plastic insert inside. I assume that this insert was to prevent a lug nut from sliding back into the deep socket. However this insert prevented the acorn lug nuts on both of the cars I'm using it on from seating fully in the socket. On one set of lug nuts the insert only allowed about a 1/4 of an inch of the nut lands into the socket. Maybe that's why some other reviewers had trouble with the socket cracking. I was able to push that insert deeper into the socket and now the acorn style nuts fit properly. It did take a bit of force, I think I used a hammer and a socket extension, to push the insert deeper.

Excellent quality set of deepwell sockets.

I would definitely recommend it this impact socket. I use it with my ryobi cordless impact gun on the Tesla and it does a great job of protecting the rims. Especially since I run my a Tesla without the factory wheel covers. Not a fan of those covers.

Lat one lasted many years and a lot of abuse before the sleeve finally separated from the socket. The replacement began falling apart on the first use. Not the same quality at all.
