The 2013 Santa Fe is equipped with lug nuts that have an m12 X1.50 thread and require a 19 mm socket for removal. When working with lug nuts on a car, it's important to handle them carefully to prevent damage. Over-tightening the lug nuts can result in them snapping or stripping, especially if they are old or rusted. If the lug nuts become stripped, they may just spin in the socket, making it difficult to loosen them. In such a situation, a mechanical press may be needed to push them out, but this can harm the wheel. If the bolts snap, the rotor on the wheel must be removed to unthread them from the back. These issues can be easily avoided by exercising caution.
