The van is the workshop. Tyre machine, balancer, compressor and stock arrive in Bordesley Green, and every stage of the fitting takes place beside the car on the drive or at the kerb.
Emergency mobile fitting means a complete tyre change with no garage involved. On board are a changer that breaks the bead and seats the new tyre, a balancer run from the van's own power, a compressor, a torque wrench and a rack of popular sizes. In Bordesley Green, a Little Bromwich drive, a Blake Lane terrace or a permitted Heartlands space becomes the bay, and a car on a damaged tyre does not have to cross the Middleway into Digbeth.
Give the car's location and the size. On a crowded terrace, the van parks where it can and the kit is carried to the wheel. Off the rim comes the damaged tyre; the replacement is mounted and inflated, and the wheel balanced, refitted and torqued to specification. The old tyre is taken away. Everything is priced on the call, and for a hospital car park the operator's agreement is checked beforehand.
Anywhere level with room beside the car: Little Bromwich drives, the terraces off Cherrywood Road and Belchers Lane, side roads off Yardley Green Road, and permitted Heartlands car parks. Not the bus stops on Bordesley Green, and not the Middleway.

The fitter needs room on the wheel side for the changer and balancer, and a firm, level surface for the jack. A Little Bromwich drive is the easiest ground in the district. In a Heartlands car park the operator must let the van in, and a neighbouring empty bay may be needed, so ask. On the Blake Lane terraces, the van must not block a driveway or a narrow gap. Nothing about the job needs the car to move, so a stranded vehicle stays where it is.
A complete tyre bay parked by your Bordesley Green drive, the car never moving.
