I went over to a friends house to swap over his A/S wheels/tires to his winter wheel/tire set. To make a short story shorter, he insisted on using his electric impact wrench to remove the wheel bolts (it's a VW so it has bolts), saying that this is the way mechanics do it, and that it's quicker. So, he hooks up his impact wrench and tries removing the wheel bolts. His electric impact wench was just not powerful, so I used the torque wrench. If I say that the bolts were tighter than 95 lbs. I would be exaggerating.
His impact wrench was yellow and iirc a DeWalt. He was running it through a long extension cord that is made for heavy duty use, so I doubt that contributed to the lack of power.
