The most common socket size of Chevy lug nuts are 13/16″ (22mm). Most wheel lug nuts are hex-shaped. Whether you use a lug wrench, torque wrench, impact socket, or regular socket, you’ll need the correct size to remove or tighten the wheel nuts. Once the head of the lug nut is damaged it will be very difficult to remove it. Besides, when torquing the lug nuts, a high-quality socket is capable of withstanding certain forces.
If your Chevy car comes with OEM locking wheel lug nuts, then a special key may be stored in the glove compartment, center console storage, storage box, or trunk. Wheel locks work as standard wheel nuts but they require specific keys to install/remove. When the Chevy wheel locks come into contact with water and oxygen, they may rust over time. If you find rusty or swollen wheel locks, the best solution is to replace them with quality brand lug nuts.
