Sounds like a piece of pipe to me! Worst car to mount a tire onto was an old VW bug. Lug bolts, not studs. Your idea would have worked well on them, but a bolt. Also, Mart had a post last month about using a shovel to lift the tire/wheel and pivot it right onto the studs. Between your's and Mart's I hope to never have to lift another 7.50 x 17 ten ply on a multi-piece onto the front studs. Rears are easy with the full floating rear axle. Thanks for the tip!
