Slide a spade/shovel under the outer edge of the bottom of the tyre. Push the spade/shovel handle down, thereby lifting the wheel up an inch or two to stud height. To rotate, slide the spade/shovel handle left or right to spin the wheel until studs line up with the holes. Push the wheel on. So bloody easy and takes no effort at all!
Thanks to my old man I will use this trick from now on.
