A van in a Tyseley Energy Park yard with a shredded tyre, or a car in Greet with cord showing, needs the right size and rating brought out today, not a garage slot next week.
This is the Sparkhill call where a repair was never possible: a van tyre torn open on the broken surfaces around the Warwick Road units, a car's sidewall gashed on a Springfield kerb, a screw that landed in the shoulder on the Stratford Road. The vehicle is in a yard at Greet or on a terrace and the day's work depends on it. Sparkhill's trade end in particular cannot lose a van for a week, so the tyre comes to the yard.
Read the full size, the load index and the speed rating from the sidewall; for a van the load rating matters as much as the size. Say where in B11 the vehicle is and whether a yard gate needs opening. Common car and van sizes are often carried; an unusual one is ordered with an honest date given. The replacement is fitted in place, balanced and torqued, the other tyres checked, and the price for tyre, fitting and the trip to Sparkhill is confirmed before booking.

Emergency tyre replacement explained →Emergency tyre replacement on the Sparkhill page
Losing a tyre on Olton Boulevard East or Fox Hollies Road means finding a calmer road before the swap. Pull into a residential street towards Olton station, stop clear of the junction, and read the size off another tyre on the car. We bring a matching replacement in the tier you choose and fit it beside the car.
Bringing the correct Sparkhill tyre out at the first go means copying the whole sidewall: dimensions, the load number, the speed symbol, plus any run-flat logo or commercial C. Van load numbers must match exactly. Photograph the partner tyre so pattern and grade line up across the axle. You will be asked one thing about stock: whether a comparable make is acceptable when your first choice is not carried. A yard off the Warwick Road or the width of Formans Road gives the van space.
