Lug nut size question

[ty**20]

A ratcheting 13/16 SAE socket will fit the lug nuts on my car. My question is what metric socket would be equivalent or closest to the 13/16 SAE socket? The biggest metric socket I have is a 19mm impact socket and it is a tad smaller. Don't wanna use my ratcheting 13/16 SAE socket to take off lug nuts. Would a 20mm or 21mm fit perfect? Thanks,

I believe the last time i removed my tires the lugnuts were 21mm

21mm. I only use 13/16" bc its fits on my 3/8" torque wrench.

I thought it was 21mm . hehe. I just removed all 4 tires to install lowering springs on the 95 but i removed a lot of other crap too, so a bunch of #s were running through my head

Check out the $11.27 1/2"-drive deep impact socket set from Harbor Freight:

Or the $5.97 1/2"-drive normal impact socket set but only up to 24mm.

Otherwise 13/16" works fine in place of most 21mm (may be slightly too small for some). And 3/4" works fine in place of 19mm.
