Hi:

Apologies if this has been answered, but I can't find it. I have just acquired a '02 Disco II and have several questions on the Lug Nuts for the wheels and spare wheel (that's on the back). Currently, it has 18" wheels/tires.

1) What is the correct size wrench to use? I want to buy a socket so I can hand torque.
a) Size of lug nuts on the running wheels?
b) Size of lug nuts on the spare wheel?

2) On the Lug Nuts on the running wheels, they seem to have a metal cover over the nuts. Do you remove that (somehow) before removing the nuts or do you put the Lug nut wrench over it?

3) What is the proper torque?

4) If I put 16" wheels on, would I use different lug nuts?

5) Have I missed something else that I should know?


Thanks,

NGOphotographer
