Is there any reason I can't or shouldn't change my own wheels?

I have jack pucks, I have lug rod, I have a jack.

I searched but find pages of DIY but didn't see changing your own wheels.

I don't have a torque wrench, but I have never used on on any of my other cars.

Any tips on changing the wheels?

I assume you have a different set of wheels?
Do you have the special wheel nut socket?
Do you have the wheel guide bar to make sure you can center the wheel when reinstalling?
I would get a torque wrench, just to make sure things are tight the proper way.

You don't have to worry about it. I let my 13-year old boy do it for me while I listen to him talk about Nissan GTRs and EVOs...

Get a torque wrench, make sure you torque all the lug nuts to proper spec, rest is straight forward

Don't forget to take a moment to clean the barrels of the wheels while you have em off, along with check brake, calipers, etc.

It's pretty standard. Just use the correct jacking pads to avoid damage. Jack stands are nice. Torque properly.

Piece of cake if you know how. Disastrous if you screw up as seen on Youtube with wheels coming off .

All good comments. What size socket do I need? 991.2 C4S

Where do I get the correct torque is correct?

19mm socket
118 ft/lb as listed in the manual

OEM lug bolts are 19mm IIRC. There is an anti-theft lug on each wheel, you should find the key for it in one of the compartments in the frunk. Tighten to 118 ft-lb.

991.2 GTS

A few tips...
- Wrap some painters tape around the outside barrel of the socket
- Pneumatic Impact or Cheap electric impact is helpful to take off the lugs
- a light film of anti seize on the wheel/barrel/hub contact points can be helpful
- After hand starting the lugs incrementally tighten in a Criss Cross/Diagonal Pattern
- Finally Torque to spec in a Criss Cross/Diagonal Pattern

Something like that is a good starter project to give you a little confidence and be willing to learn and do more car projects. Get a torque wrench. When not using the torque wrench don't store it at 118 lb setting. Twist it back to the starting point. Better for the wrench long term.
Give it a shot. You can do it.

And use electrical tape (usually Black) instead of painters tape (usually Blue) to help protect your wheels, or use soft sockets as shown via the URL above.

Re-torque your wheels after 100 miles.

Very important. Surprised that no one mentioned it. Get at least 2 wheel hangers. It'll save you a lot of muscle as well as safeguard scratching your brake calipers during dismount as well as mounting the tires.

If you have PCCB, definitely get two.

That's the correct part (despite what it says when you punch in 911).

There's a cheaper one down the page. But, it sucks.
