Any easy way to break these loose? Retarded mazda must have used an impact to put them on. I couldnt budge them, even with blaster and all my weight on the wrench. Gotta love dealerships!
 
spray some PB or WD40 let it soak in then get a pipe big enough and long enough like 2-3ft to put over the end of the wrench to get more torque on it like a breaker bar. thats what I use I like it better because you get more torque

Had no breaker bar. Ended up coming close to straining my whole body just to break them loose with PB lol. Will be sore tomorrow prolly.
 
teah i took my car to get my tires put on at some mom and pop tire shop they torqued the hell out of the lugs.... im a pretty big guy and got some upper strength i couldnt get those lugs off to save my life. then I found a 3 ft pipe put it on the wrench and bam lugs removed. I like the breaker bar but sometimes its not enough. But glad to hear you got them off
 
Brakes and O2 sensor tricked for no cel done today. Tomorrow = wheels painted and rear swaybar bushings. Gonna be hot as hell lol.
