There was a time when I and most people changed their own tires, but today, most tires have lugs nuts tightened by machine and are extremely hard for the average person to loosen by hand. But if you are up to it, it is a relatively simple procedure. You will need a good tire on a rim to replace the old tire, an auto jack, and a lug nut wrench. Below are two links on "how to change a tire". The first is a simple step by step procedure, the second is a step by step with additional safety information that should also be read before attempting to change a tire in a roadside setting.

Park vehicle on level ground Block the wheel opposite the one you are changing Set parking brake Jack vehicle at approved support points just to the level where the weight is off the tire, but tire is still on the ground Loosen but do not remove lug nuts Raise vehicle so wheel is off the ground Remove lug nuts Remove tire Install in reverse order
