My car is outside in front of my house on the street.

The tire is completely flat so I can't move it. I wanted to put on my spare tire, but I can't remove the bolts. There are stuck real good. I can't use my air compressor well because that's in my garage.

Any tips?

you jacked the car up before trying to remove the lug nuts right?

thats the only thing i could see happening to make removing lug nuts a problem.

no the bolts are stuck, a compressed air gun was used to tighten it.

but all i got now is the manual bar to twist the bolt out

leverage bro. if its too hard by hand then get something to extend your 4 way with for better leverage.

Put on mini skirt and flash your titties at a passerby and hope he doesn't rape you after.

Youre obviously a woman if you can't change a flat.

this, use your weight to your advantage.

put the bar parallel to the ground and step on the end of it. If it doesn't loosen them enough to come off, nothing will. No point in breaking your back when you got gravity to work for you
