A sidewall split by angled parking on a Fulham terrace, or a shoulder shredded by driving flat down Fulham Palace Road, cannot be patched. When you need the car today, the correct size is delivered to the bay and fitted.
The tyres on this page are past saving. A kerb outside a Sands End flat has opened the sidewall. A slow leak in Shepherds Bush has been driven on until the shoulder has gone. Debris in the inside lane of the flyover has sliced through it. The driver still has a shift at Charing Cross Hospital or a delivery into Olympia, and a depot would expect the car to be brought in. The useful answer is the correct size arriving at the bay.
Take the size from the ruined tyre, or its partner if that sidewall is unreadable. Send it with the street, the bay and the postcode, SW6, W6, W12 or W14. Where an everyday size is on the van it can go straight on; anything rarer, run-flats included, is fetched from a supplier beforehand and you hear if it affects timing. On the bay the old tyre comes off and the new one goes on, then balancing, torquing, and a glance at the other three. Tyre and fitting are priced together.

Emergency tyre replacement explained →Emergency tyre replacement on the Hammersmith and Fulham page
Around Old Oak Common, a tyre that is beyond saving is best replaced away from Old Oak Lane and Wales Farm Road, where lorries pass. Move into a side street or towards Willesden Junction station, then tell us the road and the nearest building. Pass on the size too, so a suitable tyre travels with the fitter.
The first visit to a Hammersmith or Fulham bay ought to bring the correct tyre, so read the sidewall aloud in full, run-flat stamp included. The new tyre is matched to its partner on that axle, and a pair is advised if the partner is well worn. One more thing to decide: if the exact model is missing from the van, will a different brand of similar quality do? The van then needs a legal space near the car, on a W12 terrace or a Sands End street.
