*Step-by-Step Guide:*
1. *Safety First:*
- Before you begin, ensure your vehicle is parked on a flat, stable surface.
- Engage the parking brake and use wheel chocks to prevent any movement.
- Always wear gloves and eye protection for added safety.
2. *Gather Your Tools:*
- A jack and jack stands to lift and secure the vehicle.
- A lug wrench to remove the lug nuts.
- A rubber mallet or a piece of wood and a regular hammer.
- Penetrating oil to loosen any rust or debris.
- A tire iron or a sturdy lever.
3. *Loosen the Lug Nuts:*
- Use the lug wrench to slightly loosen the lug nuts while the tire is still on the ground. Don’t remove them completely yet.
4. *Lift the Vehicle:*
- Position the jack under the vehicle’s recommended lifting point and raise the vehicle until the tire is off the ground.
- Secure the vehicle with jack stands to ensure stability.
5. *Remove the Lug Nuts:*
- Now, fully remove the loosened lug nuts and set them aside in a safe place.
6. *Apply Penetrating Oil:*
- Spray penetrating oil around the hub where the tire meets the vehicle. Let it sit for a few minutes to break down any rust or debris.
7. *Loosen the Stuck Tire:*
- If the tire doesn’t come off easily, use the rubber mallet or a piece of wood and a hammer to tap the tire from the backside.
- Work your way around the tire, gently tapping in different spots to avoid damaging the rim.
8. *Use Leverage:*
- If the tire is still stuck, use a tire iron or a sturdy lever. Place it between the tire and the hub, and gently pry the tire away.
- Be cautious not to damage the rim or hub.
9. *Inspect and Clean the Hub:*
- Once the tire is removed, inspect the hub for any rust or debris. Clean it thoroughly with a wire brush and apply a thin layer of anti-seize compound to prevent future sticking.
10. *Reinstalling the Tire:*
- Position the tire back onto the hub and hand-tighten the lug nuts.
- Lower the vehicle slightly so the tire makes contact with the ground and tighten the lug nuts in a star pattern to ensure even pressure.
- Fully lower the vehicle and give the lug nuts a final tightening.
