I took all 3 tires to a tire shop one time because I was also doing the bearings at the same time, and doing so saved me from towing the TM to the shop, which has very limited parking/work space.

First I removed the spare from the TM. Then I hooked up my TV to the TM to stabilize the TM, and chocked the wheels on the TV. Then I jacked up one side of the TM, removed the tire on that side, and lowered both stabilizer jacks on that side. Then I did the same to the other side, and lowered the tongue jack as well. I then took the tires to the shop in a separate vehicle.

Worked like a charm, and I was confident the TM was stable.
