It's called the Lift Mate and you DON'T want one.

Hi Lift very generously sent one to the SWXC for us to give feedback... and though we love Hi Lift, the feedback was all negative.

First of all, it wouldn't even begin to work with a stock Xterra wheel. The spaces in the wheel and the spoke thickness just didn't work with the hooks on the Lift Mate.

We tried it on a truck with steel rockcrawler wheels and it did work... but not well. I bent the rim on mine trying it.
