Is your wrench out of spec, or is Discount Tire outta spec? Most tire places don't even torque the lugnuts, they just grab a impact and go around in a circle until all 5 lugs are tight, 150-180 ft-lbs tight, and never recheck the first lug. Good luck at home. It's pretty bad when you gotta stand and jump on a 2 ft breaker bar the break them loose.Yeah, right
