Eliana Sheriff absolutely! It’s easier than it appears - at least that’s what I thought - it sounded overwhelming when I first learned but I would rather be sweaty putting on a tire than waiting for AAA.
I like the video but I would add somethings for women to invest in: 1. A tire pressure gauge. [Check and see if you have the correct tire pressure the tire pressure max can be found on the tire. It's best to stay 5 to 10 psi below max depending on the temperature.] 2. A battery jumper/built-in compressor. [This is needed to fill the air in your spare tire or repaired tire. Sometimes people forget to keep the spare tire filled with air.] 3. 3/8" FT. Lbs torque wrench with 3/8" drive socket that fits your lug nut size. [Make sure you don't over or under torque your tire and the torque can be found in your owners manual that comes with the car.] 4. Metal pipe that can fit over the lug nut wrench handle. [Gives you more leverage and you don't have to stand on or pull the lug nut wrench] 5. Tire hole repair kit and soapy water [Who likes to ride on a spare if your full size tire can be repaired? How will you find the hole or know if the repair worked?] 6. Two bricks [Nobody wants the car to roll on them] 7. 3' x 3' square of OSB [Life sucks when you are on soft ground trying to jack up a car] 8. A set of 3 ton jackstands [nobody and I mean nobody wants a car to lean on or fall on them.] 9. GOJO hand cleaner and paper towels [self explanatory] All of these items can be found at Harbor freight, Home Depot, or Amazon.
Locking lug nuts are not worth the hassle. If you lose the locking lug nut key, you’ve got a problem. And it is inevitable that either the car owner or someone who services the car will eventually lose the key. Plus, locking lug nuts to not deter thieves who want to steal your rim or tire. Locking lug nuts are VERY easy to defeat.
