I normally do this at a tire shop but as now I have 4 cars I want to swap summer/winter wheels on thats a lot of back and forth to the tire shop.

What should I get to do it at home?

I am talking about Impact Wrenchs, should I get air or electric power?

Anything else I should consider? Any tips?

Thanks.

 

Jack, Lug Wrench, Torque Wrench(if you want)...

doesn't have to be fancy, your just changing wheels...

 

Just get a nice jack (Craftsman or Harbor Freight work fine and arent all that expensive). A cordless impact wrench would be nice too but if you're at home, I can't imagine there's a time rush. I swap wheels using just a jack and the tools that came with the car.

 

like everyone else is saying, a decent floor jack, an flat surface, cordless impact is nice but not neccesarry. you could even step it up and get an air compressor and impact gun, but that might be overkill. a good torque wrench is a good thing to have.

 

if your really down, get a tire changer and balancer and just have you own mini tire shop

 

I would skip the impact and just go with a good floor jack and a torque wrench. Maybe a breaker bar for those tough to break loose lugs.
