2. Lug nut - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lug_nut

   Lug nuts may be removed using a lug, socket, or impact wrench. If the wheel is to be removed, an automotive jack to raise the vehicle and some wheel chocks would be used as well. Wheels that have hubcaps or wheel covers need these removed beforehand, typically with a screwdriver , [ 4 ] flatbar, or prybar.

   A second major variety of compressed air powered tools are impact wrenches which are used for common tasks such as lug nuts on wheels. Electric powered impact wrenches for the same tasks are not uncommon. Small cordless 12 volt and 18 volt impact drivers are often used today as powered ratchets to remove and install nuts and bolts.

   A 1/2" drive pistol-grip air impact wrench. An impact wrench (also known as an impactor, impact gun, air wrench, air gun, rattle gun, torque gun, windy gun) is a socket wrench power tool designed to deliver high torque output with minimal exertion by the user, by storing energy in a rotating mass, then delivering it suddenly to the output shaft.

   Lug wrenches may be L-shaped, or X-shaped. The form commonly found in car trunks is an L-shaped metal rod with a socket wrench on the bent end and a prying tip on the other end. The prying tip is mainly intended to remove hub caps or wheel covers that may be covering a wheel's lug nuts.

6. Impact driver - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impact_driver

   An electric impact driver typically delivers less torque and accepts smaller tool bits than an impact wrench. This makes the impact driver more suitable for driving smaller screws in (for example) construction work, while an impact wrench is preferred in situations requiring more torque to drive larger bolts and nuts (such as lug nuts).

   One example familiar to laypersons is for the attachment of wheels and spare tires of passenger vehicles to deter theft; one of the lug nuts on each wheel may require a specialized socket provided with the set of lug nuts.
