Strange tool in with my lug wrench

[tturkstra]

I found a strange tool in my trunk. In with the lug wrench was a 4" long steel tool with 21 mm male hex on one end and 12 mm hex on the other. I can't figure what it's for or find it in the manual:
1. Tool to convert a 21 mm socket to 12 mm Allen head? Odd since lug wrench is 19 mm, not 21 mm, so it won't work with that.
2. Tool to convert a 12 mm socket or wrench to 21 mm Allen head? What needs a 21 mm Allen key?
3. It's 1/2 lb. Added to balance the car when wiper fluid reservoir is over 1/2 full?

I found it when I went to check my compressor. Since I go through a compressor every 5 years in my Jeep, what was the chance my 26 year-old was still working? Still working!

Spark plug box wrench?

Spark plug box wrench?

It has a male hex on both ends, so I don't see how to use it for spark plugs.

Ah. I thought you were describing the box wrench. No clue what that is!

Not OEM but used for aftermarket tuner style lug nut.
Probably at some point before your ownership, someone had aftermarket wheel.

Ah yes, those "interesting" Volk GT-C's from Owner #2 . I should have thought of that. Looking at the pics I can see that style of lug nuts now. Binned - I've now lightened my NSX by 1/2 lb!

Thanks Kaz! You are encyclopedic!
