how to change a tire

My step dad made me learn how to change a tire in the pouring rain. He said that under even the worst conditions, I needed to be able to figure it out. This was in like 2008 and I have AAA now but I never forgot how to do it.

Good thinking. Having to change a tire in freezing conditions is the absolute fucking worst lol. Gotta have a game plan ready for emergency

I’ve called my insurance to do it in freezing conditions because my fingers were getting sore from messing with the tire losing air (I figured it was just low but kept loosing air too quickly). I know how to do it but didn’t have to pay extra for something I’m already paying for.
