Question, 40 years ago, did your tools fall from the sky or did you have to buy some or all? Follow up question, did you buy one socket at a time or buy a kit?

Maybe stop guessing and listen to people who actually work on cars such as myself.
Take a tire off, they use an impact. Put on, it depends on a shop.
This is a good set for tires and more....

Lug nuts that come off easily with a standard 1/2" ratchet (maybe 10" long?) are likely not torqued properly. Usually around 75-80 ft/lbs for steel wheels and 95-100 ft/lbs for aluminum wheels on...

If you only had one car, you probably would not need 6 different socket sizes or think it was worth investing in a bunch of tools.

“Tire Changing Set” - I’d love to see someone change a tire with this, that requires serious skill. I could swap a wheel with it, but that’s about it.

You'll be surprised with the mechanics who have used impact guns to put on oil pan bolts and things like that. Severely overcue. The thing is about over tightening a log on tires that you can break...

I have a breaker bar in my truck that I would have never bought except for some stubborn lugs in a pretty crappy situation. Luckily was within walking distance of a hardware store.

I have a torque wrench for about 7 years. They they good for a while or should be replaced every x years? I use it several times a year to switch out the summer and winter wheels.
