They were hand tight but too short/deep into the hole to get with my fingers and the key was too big to fit. Was able to locktite the extenders on the spline lugs wait till it dried and then slowly unscrewed them with a normal wrench. im super lucky I didnt get ahead of myself and torque em down otherwise the force to break em loose could have broken the thread lock before the lugs themselves. Im just going to get the non locking ones that are just a regular long ass lug with a spike end that uses a normal socket and sticks out far enough i can easily remove with a tire iron and just not park anywhere sketchy or for long periods of time where someone could steal the wheels stupid xxr should have made the holes bigger, no idea why they so small. Thats 2 diff sets that didnt fit the key, and its not because of the powder because the key wouldnt fit in my buddys non powdered set either
