- Get home, jack is damaged.
- Take jack back to replace it.
- Get car washed. (also grab lunch)
- Jack car up, take off a wheel and set the new wheel on
- Lug nuts don't fit.

Actually, you're halfway there. Every auto repair/install job has two requirements:
1. At least one trip to the store for a tool you didn't have (or you've lost).
2. At least one trip to the parts house for a part that you didn't have or that didn't fit.
See, you've already done due diligence on the tool, so now you just need to do the same for the lug nuts! Hang in there, buddy.
Cold beer when you're done!
