I have a trolley jack and used it to jack up my car far quicker than the scissor jack in the spare kit I would jack it up until the wheel leaves the ground and then put the scissor jack underneath the car and quickly jack it up until there was tension so if the trolley jack failed the scissor jack would hold it. took less than an hour to rotate all the tyres.

Thanks mate. Using the spare is so obvious when somebody points it out. The amount of times I've rotated and struggled with the car nearly falling off the axle stands, especially when the car is jacked with one jack in one corner and the the other axle stand or jack diagonally in the other corner. Close to falling off the jack so many times. I've just rotated the wheels using my usual method and swore that there must be an easier method and found your method. Thanks

Very useful share.a few times I got frustrated with those oil change with free tire rotation and then later they’ll say my tires can’t be rotated because they’re old or worn out .but I know they’re still good.and doing it at home is scary and for me not safe that two tires will be removed at one point.and leave the vehicle unstable.

I use this method but I have a full size spare that I just include in the rotation. It makes my tires last about 25% longer and I never have to revisit the first tire until it's time to rotate again. And while I have each tire off, I clean rocks out of the tread, clean brake dust from the backs of each rim, pull out any nails, and plug as needed. And I check and lube the caliper bolts with every other rotation because they'll otherwise be seized when I do my brakes.

Use a floor jack. Takes about 50% of time off this method. Those scissor jacks that they put in the trunk are for emergency use. They really aren't suited for what you are doing, although it works obviously. It's funny reading the comments how many people don't realize you can use a spare to rotate tires. Thought it was obvious. You must use a torque wrench to spec for safety reasons. Also, check the torque again after you drive the car the first time after you do this. You'd be surprised to see how some of those lugs can come loose. Blue Loctite is also a good idea. Nice video.

If you're not driving on the spare, just using it to hold the space while rotating, hand tightening all the lug nuts is what I do personally - use your own judgement. Many sources suggest a diagonal X pattern for AWD vehicles: www.bridgestonetire.com/learn/maintenance/tire-rotation/

I've been scratching my head about tire rotation lately. I drive a Miata, not crazy, but I do play with it (within reason). I've rotated tires religiously my whole life. However due to "life happenings" I've neglected rotating for two years. I've also NOT seen my tires wearing much quicker than when I DID rotate them. I've always been told (and believed) that rotating tires nearly doubled their life, I'm don't think I believe that anymore. This is my third year on my current set and at the rate they are wearing I'll be starting to need a new set around tax time. That's absolutely par for the course with my Miata, averaging about 3.5 years per tire set. My level of driving aggression hasn't altered, and I've actually been driving FAR more to stay out of the house (daughter and her 3 howling 2- to 5-year-olds crashed back in on the wife and I a couple years back). If rotating doesn't really make THAT big a difference in wear, at least on a light car like the Miata, I'll just forgo the rotations and run a staggered wheel/tire setup for the more aggressive look.

@stevieboitano1038
@stevieboitano1038 8 ай бұрын
I think generally the rate of wear is a negligible difference for most daily, clear-weather driving. The only time you will likely notice it will happen to be when you need it most, in adverse weather conditions, rain, ice... or if you drive it like a race car, where it can be a pucker vs wreck difference. This video is pretty good; I think you could adapt it to just a single moving jack stand, keeping in mind some rotations are more complicated (AWD/4WD). If you break it down into single steps though, the "three on the floor" idea should still work.

This is good but the combination is different depending on whether your car is front or rear wheel drive or your tyres are directional. One thing you shouldn't do is put your feet under the tyre with the scissor jack in use, it's just for changing a flat. If the scissor jack fails, your feet are under the tyre you'll trap your feet.

You are absolutely correct - I did not touch on directional tires. If your tires are directional then they can only be rotated on the same side to keep them rolling in the designed direction. If you're unsure if you have directional tires, chances are you don't as they are less common and used for intentional purposes.

Some shops will use "torque sticks" on the end of the air impact wrenches that vibrate when the correct torque is reached. The better shops will use a torque wrench. If you can afford a car nowadays, get yourself a cheap torque wrench from harbor freight just consider it part of ownership, also buy a scan tool too that connects to the OBD2 port. Even if you don't plan on diagnosing and fixing the car you'll at least have an idea what the problem is and be able to kind of keep the repair shop honest.

What this KZfaqr doesn't mention is that the owner's manual explicitly states that the jack should NEVER be used in this manner. It is for emergency use to change a flat tire only. As you can clearly see in the video, parts of this person's body are under the wheel area of the car when he removes and reinstalls the tire. To do this safely and properly, the vehicle must be supported by a proper set of jack stands that are specifically designed to support the weight of the car when work is being performed on the vehicle. You're asking for trouble when you use a tire jack as a jack stand. Please DO NOT try this at home. Get yourself a proper set of jack stands (they won't cost that much), find the lifting locations on the underside of your car (a dealer can show you) and safely support your vehicle when changing wheels and tires. It's simply not worth having parts of your body crushed when the car slips off a wobbly tire jack (to say nothing of the legal liability that comes with ignoring a safety warning from the manufacturer). Don't do this. It's not worth the risk.

In no part of this video was the jack used as a jack stand... it was used to lift the vehicle and remove/replace a tire immediately. As far as my feet being under the vehicle - yupp and you could have done the whole thing with hands and feet safely off to the side. This jack was used in the manner it was designed for - jacking up the vehicle to change a tire - just happened to change four tires one right after another. Have a good day!
