I tried the search with no luck. My inlaw wants me to rotate his tires, before a go over i want to make sure i have the right tools. What socket size are the wheel lugnuts on a 07 Sliverado 1500HD? Also, do i need a deep socket?. The wheeel are the stock aluminium with ceter cap/black plastic lug caps.

Thanks

the truck should come with a tire jack and the lug wrench already...especially if it is an 07. check under the rear seat...

Muddermfan,

I have the jack, i just need a socket so i can use my tourqe wrench on the lugnuts.
Thanks

gotcha. sorry...they should be 14mm.

Mudderfan,

14mm? sounds small, my other GM cars use 19MM. I called a chevy dealer, and the service rep quickly responded it was 7/8 STD be fore he hung up. He didn't sound to knowledgable. Anyways i converted the 7/8 to metric and come up with 22MM. Does that sound right?

Thanks

mudderfan

lmao. i called the dealer and he said 14mm. so i have no idea then. i would assume to just bring a bunch of metric sockets and see what you come up with. sorry to keep you in circles man, im trying..

Bring 19-22mm sockets and you'll be fine.

Thanks for everyones help. just one more Q; DoI need deep sockets or can I get away with STD depth sockets?
Thanks

adam

deep for sure, especially for enough room to swing a torq wrench, may even need a little extension
