Ok sorry didn't mean to type in CAPs. I have a 2000 integra GSR with skunk2 coilovers & tokico blues, front lowered about 3 inches & rear about 2 inches. I just got a flat tire on my rear passenger tire and now the whole passenger side is about 2 inches off the ground. My problem is I used my stock scissor jack all the way up and I still can't take the wheel off because the cars not high enough (stock GSR starfish rims). What do I do?? I'm a High School student with little to no experience if that helped any

Cliff Notes:
-Got a flat tire
-Used my stock scissor jack all the way up & still can't get the wheel off, because cars too low?

 

wow

lower the car down on a block of wood or a jackstand if possible, put wood under jack, jack up again, repeat till cars in air.

I thought this was common sense.

 

ok use your scissor jack on the side, then when its high enough, take a regular jack and jack up from the rear tow hook, then place jack stands on sides, and to take off just reverse the order, like 1.3Lturbo said, it IS common knowledge

 

i guess thats the only time scissor jacks come in handy

 

put the scissor jack under the lca. that way when you get the car up the suspension doesn't droop and you can take the wheel off.

 

Jack the car up from the rear tow hook using a hydraulic jack. If you don't have one...you need one.

Agreed. The stock scissor jack is useless.

My quarter panel agrees. (scissor jack collapsed...crunch.)

Yeah...it was only a few weeks after I bought it, too. I cried The car had a pristine body before that happened...

 

holy crap never thought that could happen, I feel a little bit, going out of a driveway today and crunch goes my drivers front bumper, listening to it scrape hurt.
