It is important to know the correct bolt size for a 2002 Ford Explorer, which is 5 lug with a 4.5-inch or 114.3mm high positive offset. When working with lug nuts on a car, it is crucial to handle them carefully to avoid damage. Over tightening can lead to snapping or stripping the lug nuts, especially if they are old or rusted. Stripped lug nuts will just spin in the socket, making them difficult to remove, potentially requiring a mechanical press that can harm the wheel. If bolts snap, removing the rotor and unthreading them from the back will be necessary. These situations can be avoided with proper caution.
