I have a real issue getting large wheels and tires off and on. Oddly, my f250 is easy b/c it has studs, I can lever them up, but he Cayenne and the Benz use bolts and its darn near impossible. I need to buy some threaded rod with the right thread and pitch and make temporary locating studs.
You need a pilot pin Greg. I got one of these and changing wheels each season has become significantly easier. There are also little foot operated lever arm jacks to push up wheels to the hub. I may get one of those someday for the huge 21s. But the pin makes all the difference now.
