Subject:Re: "dry" sound from wheel

A lister once gave me a wonderful piece of advice on
the lug nuts.

Go buy yourself an 18" breaker bar and an impact
socket to remove the lug nuts.  it works wonders, and
if you get craftsman you can jum on it without
worrying about breaking it.  Carry it in your van,
because it is always tough to get those off.
