Tyre change wheel removal!

Hi Lads,
Now is the time to change for proper knobby tyres.
Done some research and (as expected) web prices are much cheaper than local garages (ie. pair of TKC 80's �135 garage �190 etc).
On top of that, if I bring loose wheels they charge �20 per wheel to fit new tyres and if I bring a bike they charge �50 per pair!!.
Due to above I decided to do it myself!
About to order some tyres from internet (what web/supplier is the best in terms of delivery time!!)
Don�t have central stand, so what is the best way to do it? Was thinking about small jack under the engine and lift it up a bit, secure with something and there we go!
What spanner size for rear tyre?
Also noticed that the front wheel is not a nut � is the tool/spanner for front tyre included in standard tool kit?

Many thanks!
PS.
Also, was thinking about rim lock (at some stage) how to fit it?
