All my tools are in inches and so I've found that the lugnuts on my G are metric. Do I need 21mm or 22mm to remove? Think I've beat one lugnut up enough to where it is stripped with my inch socket wrench set so I may need to finagle that one off some how.

Thanks!

Time to pick up a metric socket set.

For your stock chrome lug nuts, get a six point 21 mm socket in 1/2" drive.
The six point socket will not mark up your chrome lug nuts like a twelve point socket will.

Thanks again guys, I was able to remove my stock 17s and replaced with the sport 18s.

GEE35x, you're right about the 12 point. I picked up a metric set with hex (6 point) and all was good.

Thanks again.
