Default Need a lug wrench

Anyone have or know where I can find a Kia Rio(2001) lug wrench? It seems to be 9/16 or 13mm. We bought my son the car and it doesn't have one.

Buy a deep socket the right size and a cheap breaker bar. Should get you by.

It uses wheel studs, 14mm. I'd just use a 14mm socket and a breaker bar stick with 1/2 in breaker bar and socket a 3/8 may snap

That's what I bought. I don't think I'm big enough to use that wimpy one they put in the car. It looks like it would be fine for working on tricycles though.

I never have looked at mine. I got a sub box that is covering up my spare tire. I just keep a socket set with me just incase I ever need it.
