My wife got me a 3/8 tourque wrench for christmas, and I bought a 13/16 3/8 deepwell socket to use for the vibe lug nuts. For some reason the 3/8 socket will not fit. The 1/2 drive socket that is 13/16 fits though.Does anyone know what size 3/8 deep socket fits the lug nuts? I searched but found nothing...Thanks
Everything on the Vibe is metric.21mm for the wheels. 13/16 is a little small, the 1/2 drive socket is probably 12 sided, that's why it fits because they suck.

Well I picked up a 21mm 3/8 socket, and it fits fine. It really pissed me off that Craftsman only offers 12pt in this size if you want to buy a single socket. They did have a 6pt socket, but it was with a $50 set. I just hope the 12pt doesn't slip and roll a lug nut...Looks like I am going to have to save up and buy a larger TQ wrench so I can get the IMO better socket at 6pt...

I picked mine up at my local NAPA store along with a good lug wrench.http://www.napaonline.com/Mast...rench
