Thanks for posting this. Tried to order but they’re sold out.
That, is a major issue for him. The C8 crowd is sucking up his production time right now. Keep after him.

I’ve been using these for European cars for a couple years now. Trying to find the whole can be pretty frustrating after a long, hot day when my lower back is done. OK that sounded a little weird.

Because of my lower back issues, I have to have mine rotated. The Ford tech loves them.

This item was included in my 2012 Audi S4. I've been using it regularly for my two sets of wheels. Simple but very valuable tool.

I got a pair of these (years ago) and when you put two on two of the upper studs, it's even easier to get the wheel on straight with no fuss.

Thanks for the post, just ordered a couple. No more beating the shit out of calipers or wheel barrels.

Damn this looks good. Wish I had seen this before track season last year. Definitely want to pick these up. Which are the appropriate ones for a non-R? Please and thank you.

I went for the extended ones for my Non-R as it gives better caliper clearance. I liked them so much I bought 6 so it’s easier to swap wheels side to side, or do both sets of pads on the same axle.

To take things a step further, I use a 12v impact with the correct socket to zip these on before removing the last lug nut. The impact makes install/uninstall much faster than hand tightening.

I just realized my first statement could be considered confusing.

The longer studs make it so that it’s easier to properly align the wheel further away from the hub. The farther away from the hub that you can straighten the wheel, the less likely you are to contact the caliper from improper wheel alignment.

Excellent, thanks!
