Can the impact driver remove lug nuts like of the car tire?

It can. I use it on my truck when I'm doing the brakes. However I suggest using the lug wrench to finish em up to specific torque.

There are no lug nuts, they are hub caps that fit right over the lugs on the rim, what look like lug nuts in the picture are part of the hub cap....

I have had great success with rounded nuts. It basically cuts into them get the grip necessary to pull them out. The nuts must be replaced after removal.

I have a bobcat w/ 1" 1/2 lug nuts & it will take them off like nothing. Its the best impact I've ever used.

They all look the same and require a special adapter (key) to be used between the lug nut and lug wrench so the nut can be removed, e.g. without the adapter the lug wrench will not fit the nut.

Yes, I would think so. These Lug Nuts are designed for trailers, which often distributes more weight across one axle and is subjected to same road stresses, so I cam't see why it wouldn't.

I think it has more than enough power, most lug nuts require 100# + or - torque to tighten the lugs, this thing has 300#. I use mine to remove the lugs and they spin right off, even after they were put on at a tire store. I use a torque wrench to tighten them up for the proper torque. I really like mine, the trigger works well but the sockets are hard to remove. I don't think you would regret purchasing this wrench, lots of power and easy to maneuver, no air hose to drag around and can be carried anywhere.

I have had mixed results with mine. Some times it will remove the lugnuts and some times I need to break them free and then I'll move over to the impact wrench to spin them off. If you are expecting it to remove them every time I would not bet on it. (I don't use to it to put on lugnuts, I tighten to spec with a torque wrench.)

No, an impact driver is like the drill/driver, but with more torque for driving nut/bolts larger than screws and such.

I have never removed one, but i doubt this tool could handle the torque required. The strap is rubber.

I use an impact wrench for seasonal homeowner-type tire rotation and it does the job. It is not, however, the right unit to use for prolonged use in this role. It will recharge every third or fourth lug and that will likely exceed the 50% duty cycle. It's fine for a car or two once in a while, but regular use like this would be abuse of the tool.

No..the wheels/tires do come off with a hex wrench. There is a foldable Terratrike..check their wrbsite or youtube.

A torque wrench is not needed to remove bolts or lug nuts. Some Ford spark plugs use a torque setting so you don't break the plugs. I really like this model for heavier jobs a smaller torque wrench would be good for spark plugs.

no. if the lug has been on there for a while or put on and over tighten by a pro impact wrench it will not have the torque. however once you have the lug off you will be able to tighten it or losen it correctly.. good luck.

I would not suggest trying to use the splined lug socket to remove the damaged lug you have. Would suggest getting a damaged nut removal socket of appropriate size from sears/home depot/ Lowes and then replace lug with a new one once you get it off.

Absolutely, I've had mine for a few months now and it has no issue taking lug nuts off a car, the portability of it is extremely convenient for working around the house or even a shop.

Although it is powerful enough for household jobs, it does not have the torque for lug nuts - plus its life will be greatly shortened by using it for so demanding a task. The torque with a fully charged battery is barely enough to safely tighten lug nuts on small cars. Larger cars and pickups need almost twice the torque. Removal is another story - three (3) to five(5) times the torque is needed to remove lug nuts, more if they are rusty. Do not use this tool for lug nuts.
