yeah, my stock lug wrench started to fold up the first time i used it.
(yes, the shop monkeys put the lug nuts on too tight; this is why i always check lug nut torque after a shop has done any work.)
as i was loosening the lug nuts of the first wheel, i started to see the paint peeling off of the lug wrench just below the head. but the time i was getting close to done, the arm of the wrench had softened to the point that it actually bent while under moderate force.
is there a better wrench available that will serve the same purposes and fit in the stock storage location?
