Some wheel nuts are manufactured with a permanently fitted chromium plated cap. These start off from the factory as a whole size, but over time due to the combination of corrosion and impact tool use, the wheel nuts can swell by up to 0.5mm. This double ended impact socket has one end machined to 16.5mm and the other to 17.5mm to overcome this issue.
