Video: how to change a wheel and tyre

November 18, 2009

Nobody likes a puncture. But how well equipped are you to tackle one, should it happen? A poll just conducted on motors.co.uk revealed that a quarter of visitors would think twice before attempting to change a wheel and tyre at the roadside. And a sizeable percentage wouldn't even try – they’d call for help.

That’s borne out by the Automobile Association, who say that one in 10 of all call outs is to fix a puncture. That’s 350,000 wheel changes a year and is, for AA members, the second most common reason for an unscheduled stop.

Here at motors.co.uk, we’ve decided to do our bit to help. Catch our step-by-step video guide to changing a wheel and you’ll feel more confident next time you need to do it. We’ve even added in a nifty tip for getting your grimy hands clean afterwards, without the need for expensive, special cleaners.

Watch and enjoy. But remember, never take risks – and if you don’t feel happy to work on your car at the roadside, call an expert.
