    Couldn't get them to budge one bit!
    No impact wrench.

    -- Looks like I will do some light(er) wheeling this weekend, just in case.

    I only started to worry as I wondered if that was causing my sudden case of shaking steering wheel?!

    If you were driving with loose lugs, bad enough to cause shake in the steering, you would be wise to check all the studs & lug nut seats/holes in the wheel.
    If these are damaged, DON'T drive on it.

    The tapered seats in the lug holes play a very important role in keeping your nuts from falling off....
