As a man do you know how to change a tire?

[Collateral]

One of my former cac coworkers didn’t know how to change a tire either. One day creh got a flat and he called me and his momma to help him to come help him

 

[Strapped]

At 27, I don’t

Part of me feels like I should learn, just bc when I have a family, but I’ve made it this far

Just watch a YouTube video

loosen the lugs before you jack up the car

don't want the wheel to spin?

don't want the wheel to spin?

yeah far easier to loosen the lug nuts with the full weight of the car on the ground

 

[Tenchi Ryu]

I’ll probably go on YouTube. Can’t be that hard

It’s not

The action of getting a tire changed for the clueless ain’t really hard anymore because of the age we live in….so many apps now where people who have whole ass spare tires for sale is just a swipe away

Getting stranded and waving people down for help is no longer a thing

 

[Pseudonym]

As a woman. Yes.

 

[basedlawd]

I've done it a few times but I might need a youtube video just to remind me.

Idk how it's a skill that people just "know", how often are you changing tires for it to be habitual?

 

[FukYaFeelings]

Nawl I got triple A

 

[Youngdev]

That's crazy if you don't.

What you gonna do when you blow a tire in the middle of nowhere.

I learned how to do that shyt being stranded at like 19 years old

It's easy for real, hardest part be winding that dumb ass jack up

I’ve caught maybe 3-4 flats…and on 2 occasions I changed the entire set of wheels to save money when I ordered new tires…it’s honestly easier to just call AAA but it doesn’t hurt to know how if you catch a flat and they’re not easily/readily available

 

[TruStyle]

Yea but doing it with the shyt your cars come with now is a pain.

A real jack and tire iron have u fixed up in 5 mins

 

[Supa cat]

Everyman should know how smh

 

[WHolla09]

Had to do it 3 times this year for people. It’s easy but annoying as hell doing with the tools that come with the car. I’m just to impatient to wait for AAA. The longest part is taking the stuff out the trunk and setting it up

 

[CouldntBeMeTho]

This threads been done before .

I'll never forget, because seeing grown men admit to not being able to change a tire was the very first moment I started to wonder about the coli


Anyone that answers no is a little baby girl in a tutu

You should also pull the emergency brake before you change a tire.

And, put the lugs on a bit, then tighten in a star pattern, don't go in order.


I've loved learning about my car and how to work on it and how cars work and shyt.
