Wheel nuts

Thinking of buying an extendable wheel nut wrench. Anyone know the size for 205/65/R15 wheels? Thanks.

Hi David,
The wheel nuts are 17mm across the range

Edit: six minutes, I'm slipping

Thanks Dave. As you know trying to remove the wheel nuts after the garage has used a torque wrench with a small wheel brace is impossible!

The sockets on the extendables are usually made to fit two sizes, one size of which is 17mm. Aldi/Lidl often sell these at a bargain price.
