How to Check the Lug Nuts on Your Car

Hey I'm Jake from Burt Brother Tire and on behalf of expertvillage.com, we're going to show you how to, continuation on how to make sure your lug nuts are on tight after you change your spare or changed a different tire here. I want to lower it down off the jack and just get it barely on the ground, I don't want to take it completely off the jack though at this moment. Then I'm going to go around in a star formation again and just get these lug nuts as tight as I can with the breaker bar, lug wrench that you have, or supply. And then make sure that you always go around in a star formation again, getting them lugs as tight as you can here. Just as a precaution and I like to do to make sure that I haven't missed a single lug nut, go around one more time, make sure I got them all on as tight as I can and also just as a safety thing make sure that I haven't missed one. So once that's all done and everything like that, you can grab your center cap, install it back on and remove your jack completely from the car, put it all back together and get back on the road. Thank you.
