    ive never done it but yea i think so. if i needed to d just google it but im guessing u get that cross tool, undo 4 bolts, take old tire off, put new tire on, screw in 4 bolts, make sure tire is allighned etc and drive.

    hehe...google doesnt help when you are on the side of the road....and most cars have more than 4 lug nuts.....and it is especially important to know how to use a jack safely and properly tighten your lug nuts (there is a specific sequence)....having a car (or a very large truck in my case) fall on you or watching your wheel speed past you on the road is no fun!

    yes i can... i prefer not too though lol

    word of advice.. trash the crappy jack that comes with your car and purchase a decent hydrolic jack.. those cheap ones that come with your car are nothing but an accident waiting to happen

    This is a great bit of advice...I went out and got a compact hydraulic jack for both of my cars....the truck came with a bottle jack that couldn't jack shit (hehe) and my 61 Ford came with a bumper jack (blast from the past there)....they come in small (12x24") cases and are a dream to use.....

    yea scissor jacks are a pain in the ass, but definatly work when needed

    changing a tire is no problem, unless you have lock nuts on your rim and no key :(

    yes im sure. i have my head bloated with so many terms im not really bothered, when i said it- people knew what i was talking about because i either described it or it was obvious. btw im no mechanic either, and i dont have a car, and even if i did i wouldnt be of age to drive it, so for know i dont care
