Have you ever heard of the tire iron that came with the car not fitting the lug nuts? I can get my tire changed.

Yes just get a 4 way lug wrench

Take it to Akins and let them do it and give you the right tool

Actually yes, just purchased new Lugz for my Dodge. ...the original lugs expand /strip..they have a cap made of inferior material...blah blah.

I haven't. But it's not surprising.
