What is lug nut size for 04 LS w/17 inch wheels

bradland

21mm socket- 13/16" also works if you don't have metric tools or the tire tool in the trunk.

Thread size of the lug should be M12-1.50

Thank you for your quick reply Bradland sir
we also have a 2004 GX470 — is this size the same for it also
we are planning a trip and the lug ranch is missing from both of our vehicles

Not sure re your GX, very good chance it's the same...

Many retailers sell tire tools that accommodate a variety of common sizes-

Yes. GX also takes a 21mm socket.

I find that a $20 set of impact sockets does the trick, but I somehow misplaced a 17mm plus the extension last year (I put it into my work bag and forgot lol). So I replaced it with a Snap On from a pawn shop, where they wanted $15 for 3 sockets (needed the 17mm and came with 2 more that I already had, but now I found the lost 17mm). I can honestly say not really any difference, who knows if you were to use them day in and day out maybe the $20 set breaks....if you are actually buying the lug nuts I would make sure to buy factory based on my experience, the way it contacts the rim should be the proper type of nut...(I don't know all the names for them)

p.s. a trick that I decided to use--I load up 2 extensions with 2 sockets (since I now have 2 of 3 sizes), or have 2 extensions and move the socket among the two. Why? Saves from pulling the extension off every time from the Dewalt 20V impact, as I have the detent anvil and it has considerable resistance, which to me implies wear too when pulling off over and over...
