Every time I walk past my car I go near the wheels. I don't see how I can avoid them...

My lug nuts bottom out in my Craftsman Socket before it hits the inner part of the wheel. No cutting needed. Also the Lug Nut protector sticks out of the socket.

What's so hard to cutting a socket in half? I went to our local fleamarket and bought a craftsman socket for fifty cents. Put in in the vise and cut it with my hacksaw.
