Tyre gone with a bang on the M42? Don't ride the rim. Get off the carriageway safely and we'll come to you with a replacement, fast.

Emergency tyre replacement at the roadside
on the M42.

When repair isn't an option, speed and stock are everything. Our vans carry common car and van sizes, so an emergency on the M42 rarely means a long wait. We check the rim and surrounding tyres, then fit a replacement and get you moving.

Blowouts and unrepairable damage on the M42 tend to happen on fast stretches and around the NEC and airport traffic around junction 6, the M6 merge at Coleshill and event-day congestion near the arena complex. Get off the carriageway and we'll bring an emergency replacement to you and check the wheel before fitting.

  • Fast roadside replacement: stocked vans carry common sizes to you
  • Rim & balance checked: a blowout can damage more than the tyre
  • No tow truck needed: fitted where your vehicle stopped
  • Budget & premium tyres: the right replacement for your vehicle

About the M42

The road we cover.

The M42 curves around the east and south of Birmingham across 11 junctions, tying together the M5, M6 and M40. It serves Solihull, the NEC and Birmingham Airport at junction 6, meets the M6 at junctions 7 and 8 and the M40 at junction 3a, and continues to Tamworth at junction 10. It is a busy orbital route handling airport, exhibition and commuter traffic on the edge of Birmingham.

Wherever you've stopped along it, we bring a replacement to you and check the wheel, rather than have you risk the rim on a shredded tyre.

Stay safe first

Broken down on the M42?

A blowout can pull the car off line. Grip the wheel firmly, ease off the throttle, avoid braking hard, and steer gently onto the hard shoulder or an emergency area.

Get off the carriageway

Reach an emergency area, the hard shoulder or the next exit if you safely can, and put your hazards on.

Stand behind the barrier

Leave the vehicle on the passenger side and wait well back. In a live lane, call 999 or National Highways on 0300 123 5000.

Call us

Once you are safe, call and we will come to you on the M42 to emergency tyre replacement at the roadside.

"Life saver. Sudden puncture, hard-to-find tyre. They got back to me within 10 minutes and did a mobile tyre change."

"Outstanding service. From the moment I called to driving away with the tyre repaired was less than an hour, at 7pm on a Sunday while stranded on the M25."

"I had a flat tyre off the A40 and they sorted me out. The mobile van was quick to arrive and had the tyre swapped out within 20 minutes."

M42 FAQs

Emergency Tyre Replacement on the M42, answered.

Can you reach me on the M42?
Yes. Get to a safe spot, an emergency area, the hard shoulder or off at the nearest junction, and call us. We cover the M42 across our area and provide emergency tyre replacement at the roadside on the spot.
My tyre blew out on the M42, is the wheel damaged too?
Possibly. A blowout at speed can mark the rim and throw the wheel out of balance, so we check the rim and the surrounding tyres before fitting your emergency replacement.
What should I do if I break down on the M42?
Get well behind the safety barrier, away from the carriageway, and call 999 or National Highways on 0300 123 5000 if you are in a live lane. Once you are safe, call us and we will come to you.
How quickly can you reach the M42?
Typically within the hour where we can, with same-day and 24-hour callouts. Tell us your direction of travel and the nearest junction or marker post so we find you fast.
