The appropriate axle nut size for a Subaru Legacy is 32mm with thread size M22-1.50. When working with lug nuts on a vehicle, it's important to handle them carefully to avoid causing damage. If you tighten the lug nuts too much, you could risk breaking or stripping them, particularly if they are old or rusty. Stripped lug nuts will just spin in place and make them difficult to loosen. In the event of this happening, using a mechanical press may be necessary to remove them, but this can potentially harm the wheel. If a lug nut breaks, you'll have to extract them from the back by taking off the rotor. Fortunately, these issues can be prevented with caution during the process.
