The workshop drives to Great Barr. Bead breaker, balancer, torque wrench and the tyre itself arrive at your Newton, Hamstead or Queslett kerb, and the car does not move.
A mobile fitting in Great Barr means the car stays exactly where the tyre failed or was found flat. That matters on the Sandwell side, where Hamstead Road drops to the station and a soft tyre does not want to climb back up, and it matters at the Scott Arms, where limping to a garage means joining four lanes of A34 traffic. Whether the car is on a Pheasey drive, in a Newton works yard or in a Sandwell Valley car park, the kit comes to it.
On board are a bead breaker and mounting machine for getting the old tyre off and the new one on, a spin balancer that fixes weights where they are needed, a trolley jack with stands, and a calibrated torque wrench for the nuts. Stock in the common sizes is on board, and the size from your sidewall is confirmed on the call with the price. The fitter needs roughly a car's length of level ground beside the vehicle to set up.
Any level spot in B43, B42 or B44 with room to open the van doors: a driveway, a quiet avenue, the Hamstead station car park, Sandwell Valley by day. Not the Queslett Road parade bays, the Scott Arms or the M6 J7 slip.

The fitter wants a flat patch of Great Barr tarmac by the damaged wheel, wide enough for jack and tyre, plus a space for the van close behind or alongside. Most avenues in Newton and Queslett offer both. Avoid blocking a neighbour's driveway, and use your own drive in Hamstead if it is flat. A private bay in a works yard is fine with the owner's permission. The car itself never moves, so choose the spot before ringing rather than once the van has turned off the A34.
The workshop comes to your Great Barr avenue; the car stays put.
