If you have a Harbor Freight store close go there.
1. Get a lightweight jack.
2. Get a torque wrench. Torque lugnut to 80
3. Sockets, I use a 17mm 6 point.
4. Lightweight jack stands if you feel unsecure with the jack.
Cut a piece of 2x4 about four inches. Place it on top of the jack stand and underneath the jacking point of the car. You can lift the car and change 2 tires at a time.
Never jack up the car from the middle rear of the car or the axle it will bent the axle.
