"Whether you're doing maintenance or repairs, removing the wheels can be an easy task with the right tools“, It says on the website of many manufacturers. "The set is the best insurance you can buy for your bikes (apart from the real vehicle insurance). "

Many vehicle owners do not change their wheels themselves, but have it done in a workshop. The manufacturers therefore advise showing the wheel stud extensions to the mechanic when the car is brought in for maintenance. So you don't have to worry about a mechanic dropping the wheel on a powder-coated brake caliper or on the brake disc, thus avoiding costly damage.
