04 09.01 -Changing wheels CAUTION Never get under the vehicle when the vehicle is supported by the jack alone. SB41028a SB41044b 6. Remove the wheel nuts and change tires. Lift the flat tire straight off and put it aside. Roll the spare wheel into position and align the holes in the wheel with the bolts. Then lift up the wheel and get at least the top bolt started through its hole. Wiggle the tire and press it back over the other bolts. Before putting wheels on, remove any corrosion on the mounting surfaces with a wire brush or such. Installation of wheels without good metal −to −metal contact at the mounting surface can cause wheel nuts to loosen and eventually cause a wheel to come off while driving. 2005 MR2 from Aug. '04Prod.
