Default Did you find that in my pic poster? It's the BBS center cap tool. I took a pic of it because I

thought it was a great design -- the stock lugs AND my wheel lock key fit in there perfectly. :-)

It's better than putting the lugs for your spare in a plastic bag! 8^)

Default Tim, the tool is crap. Very soft plastic and the 'teeth' round out easily.

I used to just tighten by hand but they kept flying off so now I use one of those rubber strap wrenches. Works for me.
