A big thanks to Robert (cvette98pacecar) for coming back to the tent and help me spend some $$.....

these lug guide tool's for wheels are a easier way to take off and install your wheels on the vehicle, especially if you have aftermarket wheels and calipers. 3 needed per wheel, will be anxious to try them out....
Thank you Robert!!!




In the C7 world, these are popular among those with Carbon-Ceramic brake rotors that come on the Z07 package or can be ordered separately now. Too often a tech removing or replacing wheels will slip and chip the edge of the rotor. Rotor is toast, cough up $2,000 or so. As a result, many are packing the lug nut guides in their cars for when they need to have a tire replaced or a wheel removed for any reason. --Bob
