A Guide to Changing Tires in Egypt with N Auto Express (Over 75 Years of Trust & Guaranteed Genuine Parts)

The harsh Egyptian climate can wreak havoc on your tires, and a flat tire on a busy road can be a major inconvenience. But don't worry, Egyptian drivers! N Auto Express, a trusted name in auto parts and service for over 75 years, is here to help. With this guide and our guaranteed genuine parts, you'll be back on the road in no time.

Prioritizing Safety During a Tire Change in Egypt:

Safety is paramount before tackling a flat tire:

    • Park on a flat, stable surface away from traffic, like the shoulder of the road.
    • Engage the parking brake and turn off the engine to prevent the car from rolling.
    • Turn on hazard lights to alert oncoming traffic of your situation.
    • Use wheel wedges (if available) placed behind the tires opposite the flat one for added stability.

Essential Tools for a Stress-Free Change (Available at N Auto Express):

Having the right tools makes the job easier:

    • Lug wrench: This loosens and tightens the lug nuts securing the wheel. If yours is missing or broken, N Auto Express offers a variety of genuine lug wrenches compatible with most car makes and models.
    • Jack: This lifts your car to provide clearance for removing and replacing the flat tire. Ensure you use the jack specifically designed for your car's weight capacity.
    • Spare tire: Most modern cars come equipped with a spare. Check your trunk to ensure yours is inflated and in good condition.
    • Optional: Work gloves protect your hands, and a flashlight helps in low-light situations. N Auto Express also carries a variety of workshop essentials that might be useful.

Step-by-Step Guide to Changing a Tire in Egypt:

    1. Loosen the lug nuts (slightly): Before jacking up the car, use the lug wrench to loosen the lug nuts on the flat tire by a quarter turn each. Don't remove them completely yet.

    1. Position the jack: Refer to your car's owner's manual for designated jack points. These are typically reinforced areas on the car's frame designed to support the vehicle's weight when lifted.

    1. Lift the car: Carefully raise the jack until the flat tire is a few inches off the ground.

    1. Remove the lug nuts: Now that the tire is lifted, completely unscrew the lug nuts and set them aside in a safe location where they won't roll away.

    1. Replace the flat tire with the spare: Align the spare tire with the hub and carefully slide it onto the bolts.

    1. Hand-tighten the lug nuts: Screw the lug nuts back onto the bolts by hand as tightly as possible.

    1. Lower the car: Slowly lower the jack until the tire touches the ground.

    1. Tighten the lug nuts: Use the lug wrench to tighten the lug nuts in a star pattern to ensure even pressure. This is crucial for safe driving. Double-check the tightness after driving a short distance.

Getting Back on the Road Safely:

Once you've replaced the flat tire and secured it properly, you can resume your journey. However, remember that a spare tire is temporary. It's vital to have the flat tire repaired or replaced by a qualified technician at your earliest convenience.
