The tyre is past saving and you still need the car today. Park off the M5 at West Bromwich, Quinton or Droitwich and we bring the correct size out to you.
Some damage leaves no choice: a hole near the edge of the tread, a tyre run flat along the A41 until the sidewall shredded, or a gash from debris near Ray Hall. When that happens to someone who has to be in Birmingham or Worcester by the afternoon, a repair is off the table and waiting for a garage slot tomorrow is no answer either. The car needs a whole new tyre, today.
Copy the size code from the healthy tyre across the axle and text it with the registration. We check that size is in stock, give the full figure including callout before leaving Brent Cross, and load it. At the car the wrecked casing is cut away from the rim, a fresh tyre is seated and trued on the balancer, and a gauge goes over the tread and pressures of the other three, so the rest of the week is covered.
Need something else? Our pages on burst tyre replacement on the M5 and locking wheel nut removal on the M5 explain those jobs.
A West Bromwich retail park on the A41 Birmingham Road, a Quinton supermarket car park or your drive in Dudley or Smethwick. The all-lane running section of the M5 is off limits; get the car to Wychbold or Frankley first.

Emergency tyre replacement explained →Emergency tyre replacement on the M5 page
Cars and vans heading off the M5 for Smethwick may end up near Smethwick Galton Bridge station or around Galton Village with a tyre that has to be replaced. Spring Road Industrial Estate is another spot with room. Say which street or unit the vehicle is beside, give the tyre size, and say if the wheel uses a locking nut.
For a replacement on an M5 car, the sidewall tells us what to load: size, load number and speed letter, along with XL or run-flat stamps where printed. Note the brand on the tyre across that axle too, because a mismatched pair can tug the steering. On the call we ask whether it must be identical or the nearest match on the van will do. Then pick a spot where the van can stand, like Wychbold village off J5 or a Quinton supermarket car park at J3.
