Goodyear 75521 Wheel Wrench

I recently had a tyre blow-out on my van and came to try and remove the wheel to fit the spare. Last time the van was in the local garage it seems they had way over-tightened the wheel nuts because they were so tight I actually snapped the socket off the wheel brace that came with the van. Not good. Anyway, after searching for a more robust wheel brace, I thought I’d give this one a try as it can be extended for more leverage.This brace is solid. It extends easily and there’s no wobbling about when extended. The brace has a ½” drive onto which the socket fits. The socket is actually 2 sockets in one; you fit it in reverse to switch between 17mm and 19mm.Works a treat on wheel nuts and would actually be great for self-defence. 😇

A very strong, heavy, well made trye wrench especially if the garages have over tightened the wheel nuts. Was so easy to remove bolts from car. Good price too. Delivered on date set.

Yes it works eventually. I found the original torque put on by Honda was too much but after resetting this works without bending as it initially did.Fine for usual torques but check if a standard wrench works

Seems good quality although not used this yet. Bought this due to getting a flat tyre and the wheelbrace I had (the traditional four stem) couldn't loosen the final wheel nut....this purchase should, hopefully, get the leverage needed in future.

Bought this over the draper version because this one offered same day delivery. Perfect for removing nuts that are really hard to get off, did it in one try. Much better than the standard rubbish wrench that ford puts in there cars which just falls to pieces. Love the reversible socket which saves having a spare socket around that could get lost

usefull and good quality hope not have to use it dont like punchers

What can I say this has been a tool which has helped tremendously, had a flat tried to take wheel bolts off with normal car wrench impossible as the wheel nuts had been tightened with an air gun, realised bought the wrench which made it effortless. Brilliant.

Quite often when tyre dealers fit the wheels back onto a car they over tighten the nuts. This then makes it near impossible to remove the wheel nuts using the small wheel wrench provided in the car toolkit, such as when you have a puncture and have to change the wheel in an emergency. For this reason I bought this Goodyear telescopic Wheel Wrench back in 2016.Today (2021) I had a puncture and had to change the wheel for the spare. The tool in the standard toolkit would not remove wheel nuts, but I had been carrying the Goodyear Wheel Wrench in my boot (trunk) for 5 years just for this occasion. It easily removed the first nut, but the second nut needed just a bit more force. At this stage the Goodyear Wheel Wrench broke. You can see from the photo's the metal was torn apart by using the wheel wrench for the one specific job it was designed to do. At the same time I also gashed my hand on the sharp metal of the now destroyed wheel wrench. I then had to contend with 4 wheel nuts that I couldn't remove and a bleeding hand. In the pouring rain too. Did you know that there is a good reason why punctures often occur in the rain? I won't go into that here!When I bought this wheel wrench I thought that the manufacturer "Goodyear" would mean it was well made and robust, or at least strong enough to do the job. Clearly this is not the case and it is made from the cheapest low grade steel that its possible to buy.
