This is what you want. I've had it for a couple of years and it has more than enough power to do multiple tire changes.

My Snap On 18v. is now 10 year old. I rebuilt the batteries about 3 years ago and it still can remove cup car center lugs or 5 lugs all day without a recharge. Expensive up front, but not averaged over 10 year....

I've had a Ryobi 18v 1/2 for four years. $95 or less. Add lithium Ion batteries and it's even better. $65 for 2 and I can change all four at least three times on 1 battery.

Three Wheelin'
I have a DeWalt that works great. I can easily change 4 wheels a dozen or more times on a single charge. Can someone explain what that extra $700 for the Snap On gets me?

For the money you cannot beat the DeWalt. Is the Bosch better? Possibly, but $100+ better for most of us? That's debatable.
Three seasons working a full NASA Midwest / Great Lakes schedule with three cars, multiple tire changes per day for each car....on a single charge with the DeWalt.
As for the Snap-On, here is an interesting discussion:

I've got the Dewalt also. I bring a spare battery, but have never needed it. Can go an entire track weekend changing my wheels, and all my buddies wheels as well without any issues. No breaker bar needed. It was so good, 3 other guys went and bought one. The guy that bought the expensive Longacre tends to borrow mine all the time😃
