Best lug wrench for Rugged Ridge Wheels?
Just went to check and tighten the lug nuts on the Rugged Ridge wheels,
And just realized the stock jack/ lug wrench is not gonna work.
And suggestions?
thanks!

I ordered the gorilla spline locks and its a thin wall deep socket (and splined for security). I think I read somewhere these wheels need a thin wall socket.
Check the Rugged Ridge web site...think that's were I saw them

I carry an 18" breaker bar and a 19mm socket in the rear tray of the JK at all times. Never use anything else. Carry a set of 1/2" sockets and you're good for most maintenance jobs.

Snap-on thin walled socket that is a 19 and 21mm. It does the wheels and the track bar bolts with just one socket. IIRC it will also work on the brake caliper adapter brackets and possibly the CA bolts too. Pretty handy little tool to have.
