R56 wheel hangers

Anyone know whee I can purchase a 14mm X 1.25 wheel Hanger for the R56? I know they are available for the 02-06's but I havent found any for the 07+. The BMW ones seem to be 14 X 1.5

I bought the same one last Saturday and it arrived on Tuesday. Seems like a good tool.

Do you guys have the name of the seller? I can't find any 14mm x 1.25" on ebay at the moment.

edit: holy crap I thought this post was from 2009 - yeah it's from 2008

Wheel Hanger???
A long pilot stud that is threaded into 1 bolt hole at TDC, so you can pop the wheel up, and hang it off the stud while you install the remaning bolts.

That guy doesn't seem to sell the R56 version anymore. I bought one a few years ago, its been invaluable, I'm always swapping wheels for track days or autocrosses.
