1.Prepare tools and materials: You will need to have the following tools and materials ready: wrench, crowbar, anti-rust lubricant, new tubes, and an air compressor.

2.Raise and lock the vehicle: Use a jack or other suitable tool to elevate the electric vehicle so that the rear tire can be replaced. Make sure the vehicle is secure and secure it with safety supports to ensure safety.

3.Remove the guard plate and set screws: Use a wrench to remove the guard screws on the rear wheel and remove the guard plate. Then remove the fixing screws of the motor stops and brake assembly so that the tires can be replaced.

4.Remove the old tire: Use a crowbar to strip the old tire from the rim. Insert a crowbar between the tire and the rim and squeeze it inward so hard that it helps the tire detach from the rim. Repeat this step to remove the tire completely.

5.Clean the wheel rim: Clean the surface of the wheel rim, remove rust and dust, and ensure that the wheel rim is flat and clean.

6.Install the new tire: Put one side of the new tire into the wheel rim and slowly pry the tire into the rim with your hands or appropriate tools. Make sure the tires are evenly distributed over the rim and are not skewed or pinched.

7.Installing the set screws and components: Reinstall the motor stops, brake assembly and guard plate according to the order in which they were disassembled, and tighten the set screws. Treat the screws with a rust removal lubricant for easy removal and installation.

8.Install the new inner tube: Place the new inner tube inside the tire, make sure the inner tube fits snugly with the outer tube, and install the inner tube correctly as indicated by the marking line. The inner tube is then inflated with an air compressor to ensure that the inner tube reaches the proper air pressure.

9.Lower the vehicle and test: When you are done with the steps to change the rear wheel tires, lower the vehicle slowly and make sure that the weight of the vehicle is evenly distributed across the four tires. Then double-check that the tires are securely installed and make sure there are no air leaks.

Please note that when replacing the rear tires of an electric vehicle, it is advisable to seek professional help or consultation if you are unsure of the operation steps or do not have relevant experience. Proper installation and maintenance of tires is essential for driving safety, so it's important to make sure they are operated correctly and keep your vehicle in good condition.
