eh, they were in there pretty tight. I wouldnt do it without the compressor, seeing as you can rent one for FREE

It's safer...but no you don't need them. It sure makes it easier to reinstall them when you're doing it alone.


taking them off they're really not compressed much.


I still recommend using one...shoot they cost $6 to rent. Better safe than sorry in my book. Shoot I have 6 jack stands under my caddy right now and still don't feel safe.

hondas you just put them between tires...the springs kick out into the tires. Or use a thick blanket. But even for that I used a compressor..did mine for like 4 different set ups..haaa. safer.
