1. Make sure that the spare tire is close enough to you, where it is set within reaching distance.
2. Position the spare tire directly in front of the wheel well, with the holes in the center of spare tire aligning the bolts of the car, making sure you firmly push the spare tire on. (The air valve should always point out when the tire is on the car if you get confused).
3. Replace the lugnuts on the bolts. Don't tighten adjacent nuts in consecutive order; this will not allow the tire to be put on evenly.
Almost Finished
Lower the car with the jack until the car is again resting on all four tires. Remove the jack. If there is a hubcap, put it back on.
The Clean Up
1. Place the flat tire where the spare was located.
2. Replace the jack and lug wench in their proper locations.
3.Look around to make sure you have packed up all of your belongings.
Changing a tire takes a considerable amount of upper body strength, so be prepared!
