+1 with weremanok. if you can why don't you just put that wheel on jack stands so your flat tire don't get strained too much. OR better yet, why don't you put on your spare tire first?

unfortunately, spare tire na ung nakalagay (di ko napansin may butas na rin pala ung spare tire)

i still communicating my wife to get help.. to do the job

di ko pde lagay lang ung jack baka nakawin kasi walang parking sa amin sa ngayon

Leaving it that way is bad on the steel belts of the tires. It will deform when left for a long period of time.

yup, if you're replacing the tire anyway, it doesn't matter. the rim should be able to support the weight of the car without itself deforming.

pwede rin pa jack up mo then place a stand na di nakawin like kahoy na pinag patong. sayang ang goma, baka magkalamat para mapunit or bukol in the end.
