Where to get plastic coated sockets?
 
My regular 19mm socket scratches up my rays lugs.. where can I get a plastic socket specifically designed for taking off lugs?

honestly, if you're pretty damn careful with regular chrome vanadium stuff... it won't... the edges might get a bit fucked... but a friend of mine sometimes uses like a thin mcdonalds like paper sometimes...

also you can buy that shit that you dip tools in, to make that rubber grip... and just do a thin layer...

just put a condom on it. and if you're still worried, doublebag that shit

Princess auto lists them in their catalog but I'm not sure if they have it in store.

Ebay or Harbour Freight etc...they are pretty easy to find online.

Electrical, masking tape or shrink tube.

I use masking tape, works well just a little bit of a hassle

I always wrap my lugs in a plastic bag. I used it for my neo chromes last year to put them on and take them off. Not a single scratch
