I'm changing them out and I was wondering if I need any special tool to do this with and are they a PITA?

Yup, you need a tool that can reach over the rounded part of the joint to the hex part which is a smaller O.D. than the rounded part. I don't think most AutoZones have the tool available in their loan-a-tool program yet. If you can find a 32mm (IIRC) crows foot, that would also probably work.

So is that what the Lisle tool is for?

I finally got them changed out and they where a PITA. Took me 3hrs but I was dickin around the hole time. Haven't got a chance to test em or get it alligned but I'll do that tommorrow. I also got my new rims in today! They will go on before the allignment so it'll be perfect...hopfully.

yeah
I got some Nittos for my new chromies . I went and had it aligned. The alignment shop scuffed up one of my precious chromies
People just DON'T care

Well if they scratch they buy a new one for me or it's **** to pay. I will STRONGLY imply that they are brand new and not to scratch them. The place I'm taking it my grandfather knows the department manager so I don't think it'll be a problem.
