    I just replaced mine due to new wheels and a couple of the old ones got stuck in the (6 sided) socket. I had to hit them out with a screwdriver and hammer.

    That said I have been using an impact wrench to undo them (and a torque wrench to tighten them). sooooo much quicker.

    New nuts are solid so shouldn't suffer the same fate...

    Lol tombie!

    Without wanting to get back into the arguement over the use of rattle guns the reality is that getting nuts without the 'caps' will make changing 4 wheels over a very quick process, less than 10 minutes with a trolley jack and rattle gun.

    The other residents in my complex know how often I switch tyres so it has to be streamlined
