Thanks for the advice. Rookie mistake on my part. I'm changing my dad's wheels over this weekend, so I'll make sure I'm better equipped by then.
LOL, it's ok.

I made the exact mistake myself when I was changing a set of tires when I was like 18. And my dad came running out of the garage screaming "NOOOOOOOOOooooooo!" as I am jumping on his torque wrench to loosen a seized lug nut on my car.

He. Was. PISSED.
