For all of us who grew up with lug bolt-equipped cars, it can be a pain to re-install wheels. With no studs to guide the wheel onto the hub, you're left searching for that perfect alignment all while blindly trying to find a lug bolt to thread into place. Not a pleasant experience.

Future Classic's wheel hangers allow you to thread two guide pins into the hub to make re-installing wheels a breeze. We have created a guide pin for each of the most popular thread pitches, each size features a ridged body to prevent the wheel from falling off the hub once it is seated. A perfect accessory set for every tool kit.
