Bottle jack and cordless impact. Check spare tire pressure before leaving.
On the side of a busy road, on drivers side = call for roadside assistance (no reason for everyone not to have this)
On passenger side or can get to rest area/gas station = DIY
I think a lot of people miss the point of having a spare. The only reason you have a spare is to get you from the point of "incident" to the absolute nearest place that can replace the original tire. Granted, this might be a long way off in some places, but in most places you can find a tire shop very quickly. You should never use your spare as a primary tire. Some people think they'll put the spare on and finish the travel day, then find a tire shop once you get to your destination. This is a recipe for trouble.
Kinda depends on your spare and how old it is. On my pickup the spare is just one of the regular tires.
