1/2 in torque wrench?

How can a 1/2 inch torque wrench fit the 17mm lugs on the wheels?

Just get a 1/2" socket, but you'll probably need at least a 3" extension.

1/2 in refers to the drive size on the wrench. So you need a 17mm socket with a 1/2 in drive (the little square hole on that fits onto the wrench) to go with the torque wrench.

You are swapping out parts designed by some of the top engineers in the world because some guys sponsored by a company told you it's "better??" But when you ask the same guy about tracking, "oh no, I have a kid now" or "I just detailed my car." or "i just got new tires."
