A set of 3 impact sockets designed for the safe removal of alloy wheel nuts. Featuring an internal plastic buffer to protect the wheel nut and an external plastic sleeve that, unlike traditional alloy wheel nut sockets, is free to spin separately of the socket. If the socket sleeve comes into contact with the alloy wheel while the socket is in use the sleeve can stop rotating and prevent damage/scratching to the wheel finish. The torsion design of the socket provides increased strength and durability while reducing the weight.
