Just saying, but you don't really need to jack up your car if your only goal is to replace lugnuts. Just do them one at a time.

I got the non locking version for the stock wheels here. I'm not a fan of wheel locks/keys, especially at our wheel torque. And DON'T use an impact gun on them or you fuck up the black coating. Torque by hand. This was the best deal I found shipped.

I believe you save more time by taking the 30 seconds to jack up the car instead of going back and forth with your impact and taking in and out the lock key but there isn't necessarily a right or wrong way.

Regarding using an impact and the durability of the finish I suppose that remains to be seen. At 150 ft lbs I'm not going to be using a breaker bar to take them off any time I need to so if I start to see some wear with impact use I'll post up to let people know.

Thanks for the positive comments guys. I'm not going to be able to make a lot of videos often but I do plan on continuing to make videos as I get new parts and try new things.

I figured I mention it so that people know there are more ways to do it.

When I did it, I just used a breaker bar to loosen, and a separate ratchet to tighten. And then when I had all the nuts on, I torqued every lug nut all at once.

Do you have any pictures of those installed? I don't mind the chrome ones but I think this may look a bit better with PP wheels

Here you go. Wheels are dirty AF right now, don't pay attention to that lol. It's been raining a lot. I actually have two sets. The set on the car now is marked up from using an impact gun to put them on, not horrible at all but enough to annoy me so I bought another set to install when my spacers get here.

There are comments that people have used these on a 15 mustang.

That's the set that I am currently using. They have been great for about 9,000 miles. I've taken the wheels off a few times, and the finish is holding up well.

Do you have a picture of them on? Do we know what the difference is between those and the ones the OP used? These look like dimension wise they are just a hair shorter.
