Review on CTA Tools A155 Remover Socket by David Lesperance

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Works great on Honda FIT (Sport Model - Alloy Wheels)

Works as advertised. The hardest part was removing the old nuts from the tool after it was removed from the machine. You will need to grind the flats on the part of the old tip that protrudes beyond the tool to clamp it in a vise. I did a rough cut and then filed the flats down to the end of the tool to maximize grip on the vise. After you have the old nut in a vise, hit in the opposite direction to unscrew the tool from the nut. After I removed it from the machine, not much of the nut was visible and I could barely get a good grip. For the last three nuts, I sharpened the tool about 1/6 shorter so that once it was threaded onto the nut, most of the nut was exposed. It worked well. There was no other way to unscrew the nuts.
