What size socket for lug nuts?
 

I know this has been discussed a lot, and I have a couple screwed up nuts for sure. However I ask this because on most of my lug nuts a 7/8 socket fits but 22mm is too tight. Now if 22mm is truly the correct size when new & not starting to bulge, then I'm going back to the tire shop to see if they will make this right. The nuts aren't very old since I already had to replace a set a few years ago. Thanks!

They're 7/8. The problem is that they have that thin metal cover over them, and impacts destroy them, especially if they use a socket that's not a perfect fit. Last time I got tires, the shop got 2 of mine stuck in the impact socket. Tore one to shreds getting it out, and never did get the other one out.

if factory. get new ones..

Aftermarket.. NOT thin stainless over rusty nuts.. as from the factory..
