Changing a tire on your Hyundai Elantra requires following careful steps to ensure personal safety and vehicle protection. Begin by pulling over to a flat, well-lit area and turning on hazard lights. Secure the vehicle with the parking brake and use wheel wedges if available. Use the jack only at the designated lift points to avoid underbody damage. Loosen lug nuts before raising the car and avoid placing body parts under the raised vehicle. Once the flat is removed, align the spare tire with the bolt holes and hand-tighten the nuts. Lower the car slowly and then tighten the nuts in a star pattern to ensure even distribution of force. Do not exceed the speed limit recommended for temporary spares. Make a note to repair or replace the flat tire as soon as possible. Mastery of this process can make unexpected flats much less daunting.
