Aligning the holes in the wheel with the threaded holes in the wheel hub while inserting the first lug bolt is particularly difficult. A Lug Bolt Guide Tool is also useful for aligning wheel spacers or routine brake maintenance. Keep a guide tool in your glove compartment or tool box. This tool is a great gift idea, too!
