How to Change a Car Spare Tire?
1 Answers
Here are the steps to change a spare tire: 1. Prepare a jack, wrench, and spare tire for changing the car's spare tire. 2. Use the jack to lift the car and use the wrench to unscrew the tire bolts. 3. After all bolts are unscrewed, remove the tire and replace it with the spare tire. 4. Tighten all the tire bolts as they were and then remove the jack. Precautions for using a spare tire are as follows: 1. Regularly inspect the spare tire, mainly checking the tire pressure and for any wear or cracks. Replace the tire as soon as possible if the tread wears down to the wear indicator line. If there are small cracks on the tire sidewall, avoid using it for long-distance or high-speed driving, as the sidewall is thin and prone to blowouts at high speeds. 2. Do not store oil products with the spare tire. The main component of tires is rubber, which is most vulnerable to erosion by various oil products. If the tire gets stained with oil, promptly wash it off with a neutral detergent. 3. Tires are rubber products and will age if stored for too long. Generally, the aging period for tires is about 4 years, so the spare tire should be replaced after 4 years.
