Hey guys,

after becoming stuck with a flat tyre and unable to remove my wheel bolts, I've decided to buy a cheapy breaker bar in order to get me out of the situation in future.

Would these two items work together?:

breaker bar:

socket set:

Cheers for any help.

Yes they would.

Sockets are made for an impact gun though so they may have slightly thicker wall thickness which may make them a tight fit in your wheels. Also if you use the sockets for other jobs the extra wall thickness may get in the way. They have six sides though which is good for applying max torque without the socket slipping (rounding off).
I'll be keeping the sockets exclusively in the boot of the car, so they'd only be used for that. Should I just look for ones that aren't made for an impact gun?

Last question, do you think 750mm is overkill on the bar? Is 60 adequate? Or should I go for the larger bar; there's only a few £££ in it.

Thanks for the reply
