When a Kings Heath tyre is finished, gashed on a High Street kerb or down to the cords, and the day cannot wait, the correct size is loaded and fitted at the car.
The emergency replacement in Kings Heath is the tyre nobody can patch: a sidewall gashed on the edge of a High Street bay, tread worn through after a winter of Vicarage Road cushions, or a puncture that landed near the shoulder. The car is on a Billesley drive or in a permit terrace and the day depends on it. Waiting for a garage slot at the Maypole is not an option, so the tyre comes to the car.
The usual sizes ride along in the van; for an unusual one the fitter orders it and gives the earliest honest visit. Where the car stands, the replacement goes onto the rim, the wheel is balanced and torqued, the remaining three checked over, and the cost of tyre, fitting and the trip is confirmed before you book. What the fitter needs from you is the full size and speed rating from the sidewall, the road in B14, and where it is parked: drive, terrace or behind the shops.

Emergency tyre replacement explained →Emergency tyre replacement on the Kings Heath page
When a tyre is beyond repair on Fordhouse Lane or Linden Road, both carrying the A4040, the safest move is into a quiet road off the route, say towards Lifford, before the swap. Read the size from the opposite tyre, say whether it is run-flat, and we bring the replacement and fit it at the car. The cost is agreed before we set out from Brent Cross.
The replacement for a Kings Heath car is right first time only when the details are. Past the width and rim, copy the load digits and speed letter, look for any run-flat logo, and snap a picture of the tyre opposite so the replacement matches that pattern and grade. Expect one question about stock: would a different brand of the same standard be fine if yours is not on the van? A Brandwood drive or a car park behind the shops gives the van standing room.
