It's not automatic that you won't bang the calipers with the guide pin. I had just painted my calipers and when installing the wheel, I did not have the e-brake set and the tire moved and banged dead center across the words on the caliper. So angry.

this would have been handy when someone doing tire work on my car put my passenger rear wheel in front and the front wheel in the back. I had to switch both in a parking lot at night with that crappy jack and decent 16" lug wrench I keep in the trunk.... guide pins...
