What did you do with your Z today V (ON TOPIC DISCUSSION ONLY)

A few months back I experienced a rotator cuff injury. Been on the mend since then. Certain movements are really painful, one of them being lifting a wheel and sliding it onto the studs. Even with light 3-piece wheels, the wheel+tire weighs 45-50 lbs. I was looking for some kind of aid to help me raise a wheel and hold it while I clocked it to line up the studs. At first I tried a floor jack but clocking the wheel was difficult. I decided to try a wheel dolly as it could perform both the lifting function and allow easy clocking of the wheel face to facilitate mounting. I couldn't be happier with the results and would recommend this to anyone in a similar situation. The dolly was about $125 and I picked up some rollerblade-type wheels for $25 because the original ones were crap. I had to build a plywood platform to add height when the car is way up on jack stands but, at lower levels, the dolly is all that is needed.
