Wheel guides

When I had my 997 it had PCCB disks and I was always very wary of taking the wheels off as the are easily chipped and cost a fortune to replace.

I bought myself two wheels guides and it made things so much easier and safer to take the wheels off and on again. Basically they are just a long aluminum stud, about 6" long, that screw into one of the bolt holes. Certainly gave me peace of mind too.

Now that I have the 992, and also a set of winter wheels, I have bought two wheel guides in case I decide to swap the wheels over any time.

Mind you, the wheels are so heavy that there is no way I can lift them with my back. Good job I have a lovely wife to do the job for me [:D]

I bought mine form Simon at https://www.9apart.co.uk/

 
That's a brilliant idea Peter, didn't even know this type of thing existed if I'm honest. I myself do like to take my wheels off at least once a year for a proper clean and detail so this is something worth investing in.
 
They used to be included in the standard 911 tool kit, but I assume this is no longer the case in the 992 model range.

Have been using these for well over 10 years now - simple but brilliant. You can get by with one but I think two makes life even easier. At £20 for a pair they have to be one of the best value accessories I've bought for the car![:D]
 
You could also just chop the heads off a couple of 14mm fine threaded bolts for less than a fiver!

It's a while since I bought mine but they were significantly cheapest at the OPC with PCGB discount. They carried them in stock.
