5Zigen Lugs
Ive bought some 5Zigen Lugs, can I use the "Beert Beert" tool on it or do I have to tighten them with just a normal hand lug fastener.
(Beert beert i forgot the name of it. the Air pressure lug fastener tool)

personally i hand torque mine. first with a breaker bar to get them tight and then with a torque wrench to 100 ft/lbs. i think a pneumatic impact gun is a little overkill. i would double check the torque those lugnuts can take incase they are like duraluminum or something weird.

it's suppose to be 79ft/lb, nothing more nothing less. put antiseize on the thread and use a tq wrench only.
air powered tool is a no no on wheel studs, they snap them like toothpick in the hand of wrong person.

how you know how many ft/lb you torque down with a breaker bar?
bc i'm just using the breaker bar so i dont have to sit there and ratchet tighten lugs with a torque wrench
