ive got one of the extendable ones but the head is at a slight angle which i thought was a good idea, but its not as it catches the alloy....
seen this one which is at a 90 degree angle at the end which seems a better idea.

Hi Rob, not quite a wheel brace as such but I've invested in one of these...

If you haven't already?

It works a treat with a small extension bar + socket. Plus I always torque up each wheel bolt as a rule of thumb.

You can't go wrong with a torque wrench Rob.

I've also bought one of these

It avoids accodentally marking/scratching the alloy wheel

now i have got one of those... the trouble with the one i have the angle is a bit awkward and can slip and scratch the wheels. i'll invest in one of those..

thanks
