Tools you will need
1 torque wrench
1 17mm deep socket
1 extension for socket (if required)
1 jack (trolley jack better as it will take less time)
1 pair of axle stands
1 pot of paint (hammerite usually preferred)
1 wire brush or scotch cloth
1 can of brake cleaner or panel wipe
1 fine brush
Please note For safety reasons After jacking your car up & taking your wheels off it is important to brace the car which is why axle stands should be used! NEVER work under a car with just the jack holding it up!
Also! The torque settings for wheel bolts can differ from car to car, always check the manual to see the correct torque setting for your particular vehicle! This thread is based on work carried out on a Stilo Abarth so the torque setting for the wheel bolts is 110NM.
