I see people doing:
1. Breaker bar
2. Cordless drill
3. put lugs on back on by hand
4. Cordless drill the lugs back on
5. Torque the lugs
Me:
1. Impact drill the lugs off
2. put lugs back on by hand
3. Impact drill the lugs on 1-2 clicks
4. Torque lugs
Just gotta make sure you use anti-seize compound on your lugs every once in awhile and make sure to wipe the threads off once in awhile to keep them clean.

it says it goes up to 240lbs of torque but really maybe 90? i only use it to take shit off.
thinking of getting a dewalt one...340ft-lbs or a 3 foot breaker bar.
