i just cant seem to get the nut to fit on the lug. I am using a 21mm socket but with the rachet it doesnt clear the wheel . do i need a deep socket instead?

Or a long extension.

A deepwell metric socket set which includes a 21mm can be found at your local Target store for about 9 bucks.

Me and my partner use the 4 way tire iron over the air gun in autoshop every time ;-) Works like a charm, plus has the additional benefit of some exercise
