A split sidewall in Shirley, and no time to wait for a workshop booking. A tyre in the right size, run-flat if the car uses them, is brought to your Monkspath drive or Blythe Valley Park bay.
In Shirley a tyre goes past repair when a run-flat has been driven down the M42 to J4 with its warning light on, when a Stratford Road kerb opens the sidewall, or when a bulge shows up just before a long drive. None can be mended. The pressing part is matching the specification, since company cars based at Blythe Valley Park and in Monkspath often wear maker-approved run-flats that a general stockist may not hold, and a same-day fit depends on the diary and the size being on the van.
Copy the full code from a good tyre, including load and speed ratings and any star or RFT marking, and send it with the Shirley postcode. The van often carries popular sizes; less common ones are collected beforehand, with any knock-on for the arrival slot made clear. Beside the car the damaged tyre comes off, the rim gets checked, the replacement fitted and balanced, and the other three inspected for pressure and wear. One figure for tyre and fitting is agreed first.
Our Brent Cross team also offers burst tyre replacement, puncture repair and emergency tyre repair in Shirley.
Drives across Monkspath, Hillfield, Solihull Lodge and Majors Green, office parking on Blythe Valley Park, Sears Retail Park, or Shirley station car park. Not on the M42, its slip roads or a Stratford Road frontage bay.

Fox Hollies Road and Wheelers Lane, sections of the A4040, plus Shaftmoor Lane on the B4217, are roads where a wrecked tyre should be eased round a corner into quieter streets first. Ring quoting which road and the closest crossroads; a new tyre with identical sidewall numbers is then sourced and put on kerbside.
For the right tyre on the first trip, copy every sidewall figure, size first and then the load and speed codes, and say whether it is a run-flat. Note the brand on the tyre sharing that axle so the pair stays balanced. On the call we check whether that size is carried or needs sourcing. The van must park on level ground alongside the car, in a Solihull Retail Park bay or on a Shirley Heath drive, not the short-stay frontage on the Stratford Road.
