BENEFITED & INSTRUCTIONS for Borrani 3 eared wire wheel cars.

There is a better way to protect your investment without using a hammer.

This Borrani kit fits, Ferrari, Maserati, Lamborghini, and other cars that use the 42-size spinners. Borrani tool fits both concave and convex spinners.

This tool is made using CNC technology. It is shown without leather to show how the three openings grip the spinner’s ear angle that are milled into the sidewalls of the tool to UNDO and tighten both left and right sides of the car, The tool has been engraved with UNDO directional right & left sided arrows. The tool is designed with a bridge to hang the tool on the spinner’s ear that is facing upward. Push the other two ears into the tool, use the Kit’s socket to attach it to the tool and use your breaker bar or torque wrench and just turn to remove or tighten. The bridge frees both hands and keeps the tool from falling off while changing a tire.

colored plastic insert choice when ordering a tool Kit.

Torque Setting: In a Lotus owner’s manual has the only settings I have been able to find. That was 200 to 220 fi/lbs. of torque. All others only recommend using a hammer. Hard to get a Torque setting with a hammer.

A local shop owner, who has always used a hammer with 3 good whacks. We tested his method with our tool, and he hit within 3 to 4 lbs. each time at 210 lbs. He did say, when using a breaker bar, the added leverage caused the wheel to spin on the floor. He suggested blocking the wheel.

The standard tire removal method, is to loosen the spinner with a hammer while the car is still on the ground, jack the car up, remove the spinner and wheel, replace the wheel and finger tight the spinner. Let the jack down and tighten with a hammer. Drive the car a short distance and retighten with a hammer. Some say that the spinner will self-tighten when driving. That is true, if you don’t brake too heavy before the spinners are fully tightened.

Changing a tire made easier. Use my wheel chock by jacking the car up so the tire just turns. Place the chock on one side of the tire to UNDO and move the chock to the other side of the tire to tighten. Then let the jack back down for a perfectly seated spinner to the wheel. It’s that simple!

When using a breaker bar, always be pushing down rather than pulling or lifting the breaker bar for a better feel of what torque you are applying.

UNDO Directions:

FIRST use the directions on the spinner and engraved directions on the tool.

UNDO right side, turn clockwise towards the front of the car.

UNDO left side, turn counterclockwise towards the front of the car.

TO tighten, turn both sides to the rear of the car.

Warning on Wheel Splines.

No matter how tight the spinner are, worn splines may need replacing.
