This is not rocket science.
The lugs come out or bust off as fast as you can say, "Shoot a lobbyist".
You just need a bruiser of a breaker bar (Minimum 1/2") and a two foot or so
pipe. You must have taken your car to the Three Stooges.
How could those idiots spend 3 hours unless they were determined to get it apart
with the stock lug wrench? More likely they were stoned to the gills.

You might visit new places. Ask first what they torque the wheel lugs to.
(Should be 81 Ft/Lbs) They need one of the extensions in this kit:

There's a yellow one @ 80 ft/lbs, good enough.
I wonder what Snap-on gets for a single 80 pound limiter extension?
Probably more than the HF kit.
