With the vehicle elevated, remove the flat tire.
- Working in the star pattern, remove the loosened lug nuts. Place
the lug nuts in the hubcap or some other container so that they do not roll
away.
- Slide the flat tire toward you.
- When the tire is clear of the axle, lower it to the ground and
move it out of your way. Do not attempt to put the flat tire in the trunk
while the vehicle is elevated.
