Wheel guide bolt alignment tool

[Boxster5]

Anyone know what thread size for Porsches (I’m assuming it applies all modern Porsches).
I’m getting too old for trying to lift and align wheels now - I’m sure my very first 986 Boxster had this tool included.

M14 X1.5 pitch.

You can buy a specific tool for your OPC or design911. Only around £15 from memory

I bought a GT3 with PCCB's that had this included from new ... after that even with PCCB's it was ... gone.

The work of the bean (mean corrected) counters ...

I hadn't realised some Boxsters carry a spare wheel....

It's a space saver wheel.

I do find them helpful.

The branded ones aren't too expensive, £12 from Design911. Aluminium, so less likely to marr the wheels.

I got 2 thinking that would make alignment easier, in practice I find using one to be more straighforward and fiddling around with the jack so that the wheel is only just off the ground.

Except the one taken off to fit the space saver isn't a space saver, so where does the full size punctured wheel go?

I’ve been looking at this from Searly p/n: AK7500. Expensive at £30 but lifting wheels is starting to be a struggle
