the vehicle from moving when you change the tire, be sure that the
parking brake is set and the diagonally opposite wheel is blocked.

spare tire, making sure the valve
stem is facing outward for all front wheels and single rear wheel vehicles.

stem must be facing outward. If replacing the outboard wheel, the valve
stem must be facing inward. Reinstall the lug nuts until the wheel is
snug against the hub. Do not fully tighten the lug nuts until the wheel
has been lowered.
