My understanding is that you need to place two wheel chocks on the opposite wheel when changing a flat tire. For example a left front flat would require two chocks on the right rear wheel. Is this a sufficient number of chocks or would more be required? thank you

For tire change where you're raising only one corner, 2 chocks on the diagonally opposite wheel is all you need.

(like that icon, BTW)
