Lugnut size for 2005 TL?

Hi, I apologize if this is available via search but I didn't find it -- looked for "lugnut size" and didn't find much. Perhaps I just need more coffee.

Anyway, I had to take the wheels off (swapping snow tires this morning) using the lugnut wrench by the spare tire. I'd like to torque them now but don't have a socket for my torque wrench that will fit.

What is the lugnut size? I did peruse the manual but didn't see this there.

Thanks in advance,

Dennis

Smile In case anyone needs to know

I just went to Lowes and brought the tire iron tool that comes with the car and found that a 3/4" socket works.

I ended up torquing the lug nuts (to 80nm -- noted in the manual) right there in the parking lot to be certain in case I needed to return the socket. With the new 1/2" drive socket wrench I also bought, changing back over to snows is going to be nice.
