Someone else said it was a 30mm but I'm not sure. Good question.

Re: what size socket?

I can tell you with 100% certainty that a 07 is 30MM, and not 32MM. I went out and foolishly bought a 32MM brought it home and watched it almost spin on the nut. I broke out the digital calipers and measured it(why didn't I thing of that to begin with), and its 30MM.
