FYI to everyone complaining about the title being misleading... This is the American phrase for what you call changing the wheel. As an American living in the UK, I learned the difference the hard (and expensive) way.

This article is misleading. You've titled it "how to change a tyre" when in fact it should be "how to change a wheel". I only say this because I read this thinking someone has posted a how to on changing the actual tyre on the rim!

Don't care how it's spelt ! It's great advice!

Alloy wheels may become "stuck" on the hub, (due to temperatures and slight oxidation over time) so even after removing the nuts/bolts the wheel may not budge. Remove all body parts from under the car before giving the face of the tyre (tire) a solid thump from your hand/foot/spare/wheel to shock the wheel and dislodge it from the hub.

It's spelt "tyre" dude.

And pull on the hand break as well as secure the other wheels in case the car moves while doing something. Just another safety tip on the go.

You forgot a fundamental safety step, after aprox 30km you must re-fasten all the nuts.

Yeah you should call it a wheel change. A tyre change is fitting a new tyre on the wheel. Great guide though.

Barry Ward last year

That's a wheel change!
