Was gonna go pick up a socket just to have for my lugs tomorrow. Trailer not near me anyone remember what size lugs on the 15" wheels? All I have is the 4 way wrench thing from my old trailer and i am tired of carrying it. Gonna carry socket and a torque wrench from now on. Any help appreciated.

I do the same thing, carry a torque wrench and sockets for both the truck and trailer. If I remember correctly the socket size is ¾". I'd check but my trailer is not close by either.

3/4" on the wheels, but check the spare bracket, 'cause that one probably be different!! Good to know out in the boonies!!!!

Do what I did change the spare to 3/4 nut. Then they are all the same

Yep, change it out!! Did that, but was letting the OP know that it could be a problem if not addressed!!!

thanks 3/4" it is! My spare is not mounted on the supplied rack. You can see the link in my signature to see how I carry my spare.

My torque wrench says not to use for breaking nuts loose only tighten them so I carry a breaker bar also.Probably my wrench is junk though.

3/4 inch is a very common size but not 100% of the time. best option is to get a SET of wrenches (you should have one anyway) find out what socket fits, THEN get proper socket fo rthe tires I'd go with an Impact socket myself.. but then I have an IMPACT wrench to drive it.

of course if my trailer was at my house i just would have went out and slid some on and found out the size. I just dont want to carry a bunch of extra stuff on trips. I think i will just grab my set and go to the storage yard this weekend and get the right size and go get my impact socket of the correct size. thanks.
