If you find yourself on the side of the road because of a flat tire, then don’t worry. You can change that tire on your own as long as you have a spare and a jack. Make sure you jack the car up so that it’s in a safe position. You also need to park the car on a flat area. Put the car in park so that it won’t roll. Remove the lug nuts, keeping them in a safe place so you don’t lose them. Remove the tire, and put the new tire on the car. Replace the lug nuts, and make sure the tire is tight before lowering the jack. Don’t get underneath the car as long as the jack is in place as the jack could move, making the car fall. As soon as you can, get a better tire on the car instead of the spare.
