   You'll need a BFH to get an 8mm hex in the wheel cover hole. It's a 6mm. You can use a triple square or a hex.

David,

 

The tool to remove the tear drop covers are a 12 pt, 8 mm tool. It is the same tool that will remove the bolts for the inside CV joints.

 

You need a 12 mm allen wrench to spin the rear caliper pistons back in. I found mine at a local hardware store for less then $5.
