The Ford F-350 truck uses a 21mm socket wrench to tighten the lug nuts to 165 lb/ft of torque. The fastener size is M14-2.0 with a length of 24mm. When we talk about the "hex" of a nut, we're referring to the top diameter of the lug nut and the socket size required to secure it. Thread size, on the other hand, indicates the diameter of the nut's shaft and the spacing between the grooves or "threads" on the shaft. The lug nut pattern on the F-350 is 8 X 6.5 inches or 165mm, meaning the wheel is secured with 6 bolts forming a circle with a 6.5-inch or 165mm diameter. In the world of wheel bolts, MM stands for millimeters, and most wheel bolts are sized and ordered using the metric system.

The nuts used on the stocks are expanding due to their poor quality, as they are not crafted from solid metal. I need to repackage all of mine.

I recently tested out a 13/16 and a 7/8 wrench. I'm trying to decide which one to buy. Changing a tire last time (on I-95!) with only a factory lug wrench was a disaster. The 13/16 didn't fit, and the 7/8 was slightly loose. I'm considering getting a 22mm wrench. Tomorrow, I'll swing by my friend's shop to see if his 22mm wrench fits better.

I recently purchased an impact wrench specifically for changing the tires on my 2012 F350 dually, and the 21mm socket fits just right.
