I would have thought that Marshall would have advocated having a torque

lug wrench, or my breaker bar setup. I just start with the
tool that generally needs no strain.
I keep wrench sets in my vehicles, so I usually don't care if
I have a factory lug wrench.
Marshal advocated using the factory wrench and a rubber mallet.
I have been doing that for more than a decade. It works quite
