Found a tyre flat outside your Tring home this morning? Leave the car exactly where it is. A fitter comes to it in HP23 and decides between repair and replacement on the spot.
A flat can appear overnight. A car on a drive up in Wigginton or down by the canal at New Mill sits on its rim by morning, or a commuter walks back from the platform at Tring station to a tyre that has sagged all day. It is tempting to creep off in search of a garage, yet rolling on a flat, even from Wigginton down the hill into town, usually ruins it for good.
Keep it parked, hazard lights on if it is near the road, and phone with the address and the size printed on the sidewall. Once at the Wigginton or Aldbury car, the fitter jacks it up, pulls the wheel and checks the tyre from both faces. A clean nail hole in the tread gets repaired; a crushed or split casing gets a new tyre from the van. Both figures are spelt out on the call, so nothing comes as a surprise.
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 Tring as well.

A driveway in Wigginton, Aldbury or Tring Park, a legal short-stay bay in the town centre, or the station car park. A car halted on the verge of the B4009 hill should move to a safe side turning first only while the car still steers true.

Flat tyre: the first steps →Flat tyre help on the Tring page
On Marsworth Road or Church Road, the B489 out towards Pitstone, a flat calls for hazard lights straight away and a wide gateway or side road, such as the lanes into Bulbourne or Tring Wharf. Keep clear of the canal edge, get passengers out towards the hedge, and then call with the B489 reference and whatever you can see around you.
Before phoning about a flat Tring tyre, walk round all four. A pair gone soft overnight on a Long Marston drive hints at valves or a kerb strike, not one nail. Then kneel at the flat: a screw head glinting in the tread, a valve stem bent sideways, or a pale graze where some High Street kerb scraped the wall? Tell the fitter. A space-saver, kept within its printed limit, only shifts the car from danger; it is no way to reach Aylesbury.
