Removing tires

Hey guys,

I am putting 4 new tires on my camper this weekend and I have a question. It will easier for me to take the tires and rims off, and take them to the tire place, two at a time. My question is would it be better to take both from one side or do the two fronts and the two backs separately. I will be putting the camper (26 foot) on jacks while I work. I don't think it would be good idea to take all four off at once.

Thanks!
  • I removed two per side. I also see no problem with jacked secured and taking all four at once.
  • I did mine as you are wanting to do. I removed one tire and put the spare on with two nuts finger tight. Then removed tire 2. Same for
    the other side. Just felt safer that way.
  • I did mine per axle. Seemed easier to run one axle up on a ramp to lift the other, then reverse to finish the other one. YMMV.

    My local rv repair shop where I get my work done takes both off one side at a time.
