Hey everyone! I was just getting ready to do a tire rotation on the jeep when I realized the lugnuts that discount tires gave do not fit any of my sockets. They are the gorilla 1/2 -20 lugnuts. I think they are called spline lugs? I am aware that you use the adapter provided to loosen the lug nuts but how would I torque these lugs because none of my 1/2 drive sockets work with them. Please help!

Those are wheel locks. The adapter is the key and you should be able to tighten it with the key on like its a regular lug.

Use the adapter

I have the key/adaptor but it isn't meant to be used with a torque wrench so I was so wondering how I would torque my wheels to spec?

Then just torque the rest. I have those too with no problem. Just tighten them as tight as possible.

put a socket on the torque wrench that will fit over the end of the key then use it to torque them down

Purchase a 1/2" drive socket the fits the key.

I have been using a deep socket (19mm or 13/16th) made for a 1/2" drive torque wrench. The deep socket, to me fits better on the adapter than a regular socket. Never had a problem torquing the lug nuts....
