Shoulder puncture, torn sidewall, casing driven flat from the M5 to Carters Green: a West Bromwich tyre that cannot be patched on a day the car must work gets its replacement brought out and fitted.
A West Bromwich tyre can be beyond saving in an instant. A screw driven through the shoulder on a Great Bridge estate road, a sidewall opened on the Carters Green kerb, a tyre driven empty the whole length of the Expressway to Hill Top, a bulge found on the morning of an Albion home game with the streets around The Hawthorns about to close. The car has a shift at Sandwell General or a delivery round out of Kenrick Way, and a workshop slot next week is no use.
Send the sidewall code, a photo and the postcode, B70 or B71. Popular car and van sizes are frequently on board in several brands; if yours is not among them, the fitter says so on the call and collects it before setting off. At the car the finished tyre is stripped off, the new one seated, balanced and torqued onto the hub, and the other three given a look for the same fault. Tyre, fitting and the trip are one quoted total.

A drive in Stone Cross, Hall Green or Charlemont, a Greets Green kerb with room beside the car, a yard on the Kenrick Way estates, a marked bay at Sandwell General. On a match day, a street a few hundred yards from The Hawthorns rather than beside it.

When the tyre is past saving and the car is needed today, a replacement in the same size is sourced and brought out. Cars stuck in a yard at Eagle Industrial Estate or Pikehelve Street Industrial Estate, or on a road in Yew Tree, are dealt with where they stand: choose the tier on the call, the price is confirmed, and the scrap casing is taken off for disposal.
Getting the replacement right first time means reading the whole sidewall of the failed West Bromwich tyre, run-flat symbol and load and speed code as well as the size. The new cover should suit its partner across the axle, so mention that tyre's brand and roughly how worn it looks. Expect one question about stock: exact match only, or an equivalent with the same ratings. A Charlemont drive or a side street by Dartmouth Park lets the van stand clear of traffic.
