Wheel EZ
My A2 project was designed to get more people to change their flat tyres on the roadside, as very few
people know how to change a wheel nowadays. The way it achieved this was to make the process of
changing a wheel quicker and easier by reducing the number of processes involved in taking the tyre off
and making it less strenuous. This lead to the product becoming a type of impact driver that was designed
around removing a wheel. Therefore it can raise and lower a scissor jack with the car on it, and then be
used straight away on a wheel to remove the wheel nuts, and then put them back on. Hopefully this would
encourage more people to change their flat tyres.
