8. Reinstall all the wheel nuts finger tight.
Align the holes in the wheel with the bolts. Then lift
up the wheel and get at least the top bolt started
through its hole. Wiggle the tire and press it back
over the other bolts.
Reinstall the wheel nuts and tighten them as much
as you can by hand. Press the tire back and see
if you can tighten them more.
CAUTION
Never use oil or grease on the bolts or nuts.
Doing so may lead to overtightening the nuts
and damaging the bolts. The nuts may loose
and the wheels may fall off, which could cause
a serious accident. If there is oil or grease on
any bolt or nut, clean it.
9. Lower the vehicle completely and tighten the
wheel nuts.
Turn the jack handle counterclockwise to lower the
vehicle.
Use only the wheel nut wrench to tighten the nuts.
Do not use other tools or any additional leverage other
than your hands, such as a hammer, pipe or your foot.
Make sure the wrench is securely engaged over the
nut.
Tighten each nut a little at a time in the order shown.
Repeat the process until all the nuts are tight.
