Story behind NutCracker
"From my earliest automotive adventures, I've always been hands-on with maintenance and modifications on my cars. However centerlock wheels on my GT3 proved to be a tough nut to crack. Quite literally. As I needed to be able to remove a wheel on a trackday or on my roadtrips around Europe I soon realized I would need a torque multiplication tool of some sort. I have therefore collaborated with a friend with WRC cars experience to develop a specialized centerlock tool and the NutCracker was born. Through rigorous testing, we perfected the design which features an adjustable reaction arm, ensuring precise fitment to any wheel design. Our vision is to empower every car enthusiast to change their centerlock wheels at will."

Let customers speak for us
from 21 reviewsI received the kit, only a week ago. Impressed with the delivery time. Initial impression of tools is positive…well constructed.. the marketing efforts are well done. YouTube videos extremely instructive..
As far as functionality of tool, it’s too early. I have not had the opportunity to put to use.
A side note: hate the name. Should be something more professional sounding! However, not relevant. If it works as described, who cares about name.
Delivery was very quick and efficient. Product well made and easy to use . No more risk of causing injury to myself or damage to car by using a large 600nm torque wrench .
I received the Nutcracker and TOG tool set as an early Christmas present and it did not disappoint. The tools are presented in an excellent case and carrier and are suitable to stow away for a track event, or to fit in a garage tool box for regular maintenance. It's so encouraging to see nice quality tools available for doing jobs like this - kudos to Gabriel and his team at the Nutcracker for making this possible for regular owners to use!
Expect nothing but the best from Gabriel. Thoughtfully designed, nothing is left to chance. This tool will be kept and used side-by-side with my earlier purchase of the Nutcracker torque multiplier tool.
I'm very impressed with my Nutcracker kit which enables me to change my centre-lock wheels by myself without the risks and inconvenience attached to a long breaker bar ... etc !
I have not used the CL tool and the TOG yet, but I am very pleased with the kit.
thanks again, from RL member
Just received my NutCracker last week and it feels like a well built product and was extremely easy to use. Highly recommend this product. Best bang for your buck when it comes to center lock tools.
I got the center lock wheel guide.. surprisingly came aday or two early. I will recommend to my friends and who ever ask me about it. Happy holidays

Received the NutCracker and Wheeldo and they are both a very well engineered and quality product. This will make taking off Porsche centerlocks easier and can be easily done with one person. The wheeldo will make it even easier taking on and aligning the wheel back perfectly. Highly recommend anyone with centerlocks to purchase this.
Working with Gabriel was an absolute pleasure He was response to addressing questions and providing advice on which tools to use. I had used Nutcracker to remove the right front week on my GT3 after experiencing a puncture. Using Nutcracker was simple and straightforward and I would absolutely recommend it as a very cost effective option for removing and mounting center lock wheels.
This is a great product that makes changing a Porsche center lock wheel a simple and straight forward experience.
Let me firstly say that working with Gabriel was great. He was readily accessible to assist and answering my numerous questions. The product shipped on time as promised and with the videos and recommended tools, I was soon able to complete the task.
I was initially intimidated by the thought of removing the center lock wheel but Nutcraker really makes it a very simple process.
Was surprised (perhaps I shouldn't have been) by the weight and solidity of the NutCracker. It is very solidly engineered and, when tested, also accurate in its delivery of torque. Happy customer.
Very pleased with complete transaction. Works like a charm.
Ordered the NutCracker so giving my personal experience on it. Didn't get a discount and wasn't asked to post this. First off, ordering was super easy and shipping was surprisingly fast coming from overseas! The storage box is a nice touch for keep safe. Definitely recommend this! It makes changing the wheels sooo much easier! No need for a big huge breaker bar to get them lose and 1/2 drive torque wrench is all that is needed. I often take my wheels off so I can clean them and clean the calipers so this will speed things up. No damage to the wheels and less risk of the big heavy torque wrench falling off or slipping and damaging the vehicle. I followed the instructions and set to the recommended torque of 89ft lbs, and then double check it with Precision Instruments torque wrench, and they both match. If you're on the fence about buying this, don't be!
