1) Jack up the car on four Jackstands or on just one side of the car.
- Set the parking brake and put the car in gear.
- Jack up the car using a floor jack placed under the front or rear tow hooks
- Place the jack stands under the car. Your car's owner's manual may have illustrations indicating safe jack stand positioning.
- Lower the jack slowly until the car is resting on the jack stands.
- Note that if you don't have a floor jack, you can use the tire-changing jack by raising up one side of the car at a time, as you would if changing a tire, and placing a jack stand first on one side, then lowering and removing the jack, then repeating on the other side.
- Lean on the bumper and shake the car: If the jack stands aren't positioned properly, you want to find out now - not when you're under the car.
2) Remove the front left and rear left tires.
3) Put the back tire on the front, and the front on the rear.
4) Remove the front right and right rear tires
5) Put the back tire on the front and the front tire on the back.
6) Lower the car off the jack stands one wheel at a time.
7) Torque all wheels to their proper torque. This may be found in your owners manual.
