The workshop comes to Solihull. Changer, balancer, jack and the new tyre turn up at a drive in Dorridge or an office bay at Blythe Valley, and the car does not turn a wheel.
With a mobile fitting the car stays wherever the tyre gave up. In Solihull that matters because the alternative is grim: limping down the Touchwood ramps on a flat, joining the A41 bypass on a bulging sidewall, or crawling from Hampton-in-Arden to a garage on a run-flat that has already done its distance. Drive in Olton, bay at the NEC or office off junction 5, the equipment travels to the car.
Everything a tyre bay has is in the back of the van: the changer that strips the old tyre and seats the new one, the balancing machine, the jack and axle stands, and the torque wrench set to the manufacturer's figure. Common sizes travel as stock and your sidewall code is matched against them on the call, with the price. Level ground and room to open the side door are all that is needed, and every drive in Knowle and every bay at Blythe Valley has both.
Any level spot in B90 to B93 with room beside the car: a drive, a business park bay, the airport or NEC car parks, a street-level bay near Mell Square. Not the Touchwood upper decks, the airport drop-off lanes or the M42 carriageway.

The job needs flat ground beside the wheel, room for the jack to slide under the sill and somewhere nearby for the van to pull in. A drive in Olton or Dickens Heath usually has all three. In a Blythe Valley business park bay, leave the neighbouring space clear if you can. A Hillfield permit bay needs the permit showing, and no neighbour's gate should be blocked. Because the car never moves, skip the Touchwood decks and use a ground-level bay beside Mell Square while it still rolls safely.
The workshop drives to your car in Solihull; the car stays where it is.
