Default Lug nut size??

All,

Does anyone know the size of the lug nuts on the standard 17-inch 10-spoke IS wheels? I got a new torque wrench this weekend and need to get the proper size socket to torque the nuts.

Many thanks for the replies.

You don't have a set of metric sockets? If not, why not invest in them? -- there are alot more things on the car other than the wheels that you may want to remove.

Not sure if its the same for the 17s and 18s but mine were 21mm. If you have the key, you can always take it with you to check the size.

Perfect, thank you! I looked in the manual, but could not find it.

21 mm, 1/2 inch drive, Deep well.

The deep gives the length without needing an extension to the torque wrench.
It won't bottom out on the lug nut.
