Thumbs up Spare Wheel Alignment Pin / Tool

Yes ;

I really is a handy tool once you actually need it .

Road side changing a flat tire is different than doing it in the shop when you have dirty clothes and shop shoes on ~ in the shop I use the toe of my shoe to raise the wheel up and hold it whilst I lne up a lug bolt .

Those very few occasions I have a flat tire I'm always well dressed and don't like scuffing the tips of my polished shoes...

It speeds things up too .
