    May seem a silly question, but what socket size do I need for alloy wheel bolts? Changed my steels for some 205 alloys, had to use a friends bar out of his spare wheel kit to change them, probably should properly tighten them with my torque wrench but I can't find what size socket I need to buy

    Are you using the bolts from the steel wheels? Or have you got ones that came with the alloys??

    Good lad! You ought to try and buy a set of sockets, will probs work out cheaper then buying them individually
