A dead tyre and a car wanted today: the right size comes out to Tipton in the van, is fitted kerbside, and its three companions are looked over before the fitter leaves.
Some Tipton tyres are beyond help: a sidewall torn on a Summerhill kerb, rubber shredded after a run on the A4037, a bulge found at Tipton station on Owen Street on the way to work. If the car is needed for a hospital appointment, a shift or collecting children, a garage booking days away does not help. What counts is a tyre in the correct size, today if the diary allows, fitted where the car already sits.
Read the full size and the load and speed markings from the sidewall and send them with the Tipton address. The tyre is sourced to that exact specification and a figure for tyre, fitting and balancing agreed on the phone before anyone drives to DY4. At the kerb the ruined one is swapped out, its replacement balanced, and pressure, tread depth and cuts on the other three are checked too.

Emergency tyre replacement explained →Emergency tyre replacement on the Tipton page
A tyre beyond repair on Sedgley Road East (A457) or near Dudley Port Bridge has to be changed somewhere the car is out of harm's way. Leave the main road for a side turning or a business frontage such as Cleton Business Park, asking first if it is private. Read us the sidewall size and the road ref, and a replacement is sourced in that size before the van sets out.
What the van brings depends on your answers, so be exact. Read the size, then the load and speed code, and say whether the tyre carries XL or a run-flat marking, and name the brand on the opposite tyre of that axle; if it is well worn, a pair may be the better buy. Expect one stock question: is there any give on brand if the exact match is not on board? A Tesco bay at Burnt Tree or an Ocker Hill drive gives the van room.
