I rotate the tires on the DD with an impact and 4 jackstands. Done and done in less time than it would take to drive to the tire store, and I decide the torque settings on the lugnuts.

The 911 get the gentle touch. Softsocket and a breaker bar to break free, then a hand speedwrench to remove. Speedwrench with softsocket to snug, and then careful use of a 12 point socket and torque wrench for final torque (torque up to spec in 3 progressions. Anal I know, and probably unnecessary, but I like to do it. Makes me feel good and Porsche branded alloy lug nuts are very expensive.)
