Roughly 2 months ago I picked up a set of OZ Vegas.
Like most 3 piece OZ wheels, they are held together with 10 point fasteners.
The bolt head is 8mm and the nut is 10mm.
I needed the two 10 point sockets to disassemble them, so I bought a set of Laser brand sockets. 1/2" drive, deep socket. They are the same ones you can find on Amazon, eBay and other sites.
They look like this:
The 8mm socket fit fine, but the 10mm one was undersized. I had to hammer it on the nut.
This is what the nut looked like after:
I stopped at that point and looked for a single 10mm replacement socket.
Found out that Snap-On tools now carries both 8mm and 10mm 10 point sockets,
Part numbers DPTM8 and DPTM10. $15.40 each.
You can order these through a Snap On dealer, or online. Shipping was free, took about 5 days to arrive.
High quality sockets, from a reputable company, and they carry a lifetime warranty.
The 10mm socket is a very good fit. Snap-On on the left
The 8mm is slightly loose, but not enough to round off or slip. I measured and the OZ bolt heads are not quite 8mm.
Finished wheels:
