A tyre found flat outside the house in Maney or in the Good Hope Hospital staff car park should not be driven anywhere. Rescue Tyres comes to it in Sutton Coldfield.
Flat tyres in Sutton Coldfield tend to be discovered rather than felt: on a Wylde Green terrace at 7am, in the Four Oaks station car park at 6pm, or after a night shift at Good Hope. The cause may be a Minworth screw that has leaked overnight, or a valve core that has given up. Driving even to Boldmere High Street on a flat tyre wrecks the sidewall, so the question of repair or replacement should be settled at the car, not after the damage is done.
Send the street or car park, the registration and a size off one of the good tyres. The flat is inflated, the leak traced once the tyre is off the wheel, and the call made there: a tread puncture within the BS AU 159 limits is repaired from inside, a sidewall problem or rim damage means a replacement off the van. You hear the cost of each outcome on the phone before the van leaves, and nothing goes on the car without your agreement.
On run-flat tyres? They behave differently once deflated, so check the handbook's limits and read our page on run-flat tyres; we fit replacement run-flat tyres at the car in Sutton Coldfield as well.

Flat tyre: the first steps →Flat tyre help on the Sutton Coldfield page
A tyre going down on Boldmere Road (B4142), Rosemary Hill Road (B4138) or Jockey Road (A453) does not need a dramatic stop. Slow down, signal and take the next residential turning. Park on the level with the handbrake firmly on, and get passengers out onto the footway, away from traffic. A pinned location and a picture of the wheel helps us plan.
The car on your Falcon Lodge drive sits low on one corner. Before phoning, look at the other three, since two soft tyres change what the van brings. Search the flat tread for a screw, check the valve for a split or a missing cap, and look for a kerb scuff on the sidewall. Resist heading to a garage along the A5127; a flat tyre shreds its sidewall within a short run. A space-saver gets you home at modest speed but is never a lasting answer.
