Actually..........I never checked to see if we have one when there is no spare.

Put this in your other post too:

No the SS does not come with a lug wrench.

I just installed these:

To remove the old lugs, use a 7/8" wrench or tire iron. Then put on your Gorilla wheel locks. Tighten it down using the key and a 13/16" socket/wrench/tire iron (I think Zen means 21mm, not 22mm, as 21mm is approximately the same as 13/16"). I personally then torqued each to 140 ft lbs. My torque wrench was a 1/2" wrench so had to get a 13/16" 1/2" socket to use it. It all worked great for me!

I just bought and used a single tire iron (the 4-handled thing you reference since you'll need two sizes; the 13/16" to install your locks and the 7/8" to remove the old lugs) and then the torque wrench with 1/2" socket.
