    The best place for these extensions is leave them at the parts house. Had four new tires mounted on ’03 PT Cruiser and developed a rubbing type noise that was real noticible as you pulled up to a light. Thinking that the shoes or pads were in bad shape, I started looking. The lug nuts were so tight that I had to literally jump on the end of an 18″ breaker bar to loosen them. I weigh over 200 pounds. These puppies were that tight!!! Forget the “torque limiters” and stick to the torque wrench. I found the shoes and pads were in great shape, so I put the wheels back on–by hand torquing. Guess what–no more noise. The car drove and sounded like it should have, and did before the tire shop got ahold of it.
