How to Change Flat BMW Tires

1. Place the lug nut wrench on each lug nut one at a time. Apply counterclockwise, downward force with your foot to loosen each lug nut. BMW wheels generally each have five lug nuts. Loosen the lug nuts before jacking the car up so that the wheel does not spin while suspended in the air.
2. Place the jack under the chassis of the BMW closest to the tire that needs to be replaced. The jack should be placed on a hard, even surface so that it holds the car up sturdy enough for the tire to be replaced.
3. Jack the car up so that it is suspended 6 to 8 inches off the ground.
4. Remove the lug nuts and place them on the side to be used later on once the new tire is in place.
5. Remove the new tire from the trunk or underneath the vehicle as stated in the BMW owner's manual for that model. Place the flat tire in the trunk.
6. Place the new tire on the BMW and screw in the lug nuts by hand so that they hold the wheel in place while the car is jacked down. Jack the car down and place the jack back in the designated area of the vehicle.
7. Tighten the lug nuts using the lug nut wrench. Place the wrench back in the designated area of the vehicle. Drive to the nearest service station to have the flat tire repaired.
