It=E2=80=99s very effective, at least on the spinners. When I put the wire w=
heels on I normally tighten the spinner by hand and one hit with a light sle=

ners by hand as much as I could, then marked the positions of the spinners w=
ith a piece of tape. After some time driving around the spinners had tighten=
