How to take off a car wheel. One of the most fundamental parts of working on a car is properly and safely taking the wheel off and putting it back on. I will go over the process in-depth for beginners and provide tips and tricks to safely remove the wheel and to correctly put it back on.
If you have never removed a wheel before, this video is just for you. Even if you are an expert, I go over some tips and tricks that I use to make things easier.

I’m a big off-roader and the tip to get the tire back on the car is one of the best I’ve seen thank

Back when tires were thicc
You didn't show how to change a tire, though.
First video I’ve seen from you and love it! Liked and Subscribed Thanks bro for the help
Chris is the internet's papa
My only criticism about this video is that how the tire is seated is not mentioned or brought up as being fundamental to proper installation. If someone wasn't aware of this fact they could make a catastrophic error and say… have their studs wear and break while they were driving… I love your videos but I think this being overlooked is not great and maybe should be appended…
I had this happen to me, and I'm not sure if I was the culprit as both Canadian Tire and a Mechanic friend definitely touched the tire. It was probably my fault as I only learned that seating mistake could happen after but I'm not sure. Sadly I couldn't get any compensation and it has severely and negatively impacted my life and ability to work for the last 10 months.
You can also jack the car on the side point and change one tire, then the same for the other side.
Hey, Beavis. At 10:26, He said, “quick jerk.” Hehe hehe. Hey, Butthead, he also said “jack off” at 11:38. Hehe hehe.
Some have eight !.…..
Thank you Chris! With your help I changed my tyres myself
Thanks for the precise and, detailed steps! Immensely helpful!
Thanks for this brother
11:39 🤨🧐
YOU REALLY REALLY DID AN ABSOLUTE AMAZING JOB MATE. BY WATCHING THIS VIDEO I REALLY REALLY DO WISH I COULD WORK AS A CAR MECHANICAL ENGINEERING I REALLY REALLY DO
Hey ChrisFix,
Recently in my english 11 class, we were tasked eith writing a how-to about something, and i chose how to change a tire. Im reaching out to ask to interview you. I was hoping we could do it from sometime from no to the second. Being that i have to write it before the 7th.
Thank you,
Tristan
I’m here because I apply for a job at Gerald’s tires & brakes but I don’t kno shi bout cars
As an over-50 solo female traveler, shall I add a tip or two here? Bring a doormat to kneel on. You'll thank me later. Keep a dog bowl handy for the lug nuts – It's freaking dark out there in the snow and if those things go flying into the grass, you're screwed. Also before you twist one nut, check the air pressure on that spare. If it's too low, go ahead and call AAA (unless you happen to have a 12v air compressor handy, which of course you should…)
always a good informative video going into detail on how to this, thanks a bunch Chris
Is it ok if I don’t use torge?
Hi! I have a video suggestion. May you please make a video in the further or so on how to rotate tires? I searched it up and I don’t clearly understand I think it will help coming from you.
Thanks!
Thanks for this amazing video
Great tutorial. Thanks Chris.
10:00 you can clearly hear that it was dubbed over 😂
I recently watched the podcast you did with the investing guy and I learned just how much you're focused on the best production possible. It's weird to see "sub-optimal" dubs from old old videos
I usually do 2 jackstands on each side + tires
great video with very detailed information exactly to the point, thanks!
My friend forgot to use the star pattern to put the lug nuts back in when the car was in the air but remembered and did the star pattern to tighten the lug nuts with a torque wrench when the car was already on the ground. Do you think that’s alright?
I'm very sorry
many european cars have 19mm lugnuts not 3/4" however the difference is that the imperial socket is about 2 thou too big and will work just fine 😀
Your level of detail and being thorough are unmatched, you deserve the #1 spot.
How do u get it off when the wheel is rusted to the car
