Burst Tyre Replacement · M42

Burst tyre replaced fast
on the M42.

When we reach you we check the wheel rim, the surrounding tyres and your pressures, then fit a suitable replacement so you set off properly sorted, not just patched up.

Blowouts on the M42 tend to happen on fast stretches and around the NEC and airport traffic around junction 6, the M6 merge at Coleshill and event-day congestion near the arena complex, often from heat, under-inflation or sharp debris. Get off the carriageway and we will bring a replacement.

  • Fast roadside replacement: stocked vans carry common sizes to you
  • Rim & balance checked: a blowout can damage more than the tyre
  • No tow truck needed: fitted where your vehicle stopped
  • £10 to book: price confirmed before we set off

About the M42

The road we cover.

The M42 curves around the east and south of Birmingham across 11 junctions, tying together the M5, M6 and M40. It serves Solihull, the NEC and Birmingham Airport at junction 6, meets the M6 at junctions 7 and 8 and the M40 at junction 3a, and continues to Tamworth at junction 10. It is a busy orbital route handling airport, exhibition and commuter traffic on the edge of Birmingham.

Wherever you've stopped along it, we bring a replacement to you and check the wheel, rather than have you risk the rim on a shredded tyre.

Stay safe first

Broken down on the M42?

A blowout can pull the car off line. Grip the wheel firmly, ease off the throttle, avoid braking hard, and steer gently onto the hard shoulder or an emergency area.

Get off the carriageway

Reach an emergency area, the hard shoulder or the next exit if you safely can, and put your hazards on.

Stand behind the barrier

Leave the vehicle on the passenger side and wait well back. In a live lane, call 999 or National Highways on 0300 123 5000.

Once you are safe, call and we will come to you on the M42 to burst tyre replaced fast.
