With the front wheels, it's a little trickier, since the wheel will spin freely. But I either try to hold the outside edge of the rotor and rotate that way, or I try to line up the wheel and then throw it on the hub, which again holds the wheel up...
What am I doing differently from you guys? I've heard many people complain about throwing on BMW wheels and obviously the tool exists... So I know you guys aren't crazy. I'm also not the most patient person in the world, so what gives?

Agree 100 percent. I do exactly the same. Most likely you are sitting and mounting the wheel rather than squatting and trying to do it. Makes a huge difference for me to give it up and just sit down.
