Mobile tyre fitting
in Brent Cross.
Brent Cross is where the vans are loaded each morning, NW2 on the address and Barnet on the map, with Staples Corner and the first junction of the M1 a few hundred yards away. Even so, every tyre is fitted at your car.
A fitter at your car
in Brent Cross.
Nothing about being the home district changes how the work is done. There is no waiting room and no ramp on Adrian Avenue, and the streets around Staples Corner are lorry roads rather than anywhere to leave a car standing. What being close does change is the run: a call from NW4 or the shopping park is about as short a journey as this business makes. Tell the fitter which side of the junction the car is on and what the sidewall says, and the tyre comes to it.

Tyre work in Brent Cross.
Everything the van carries is for tyres and wheels: a replacement in the size the car already runs, mounted and balanced where it stands; a tread puncture opened up, examined from inside the casing and sealed with a patch and plug if BS AU 159 allows it; a destroyed tyre swapped with the rim inspected; and a locking nut seen to when its key has wandered off, which happens more than people expect. Every tyre fitted is new and carries the maker's warranty. Part worn tyres are not something Rescue Tyres sells.
Repairs follow BS AU 159; the legal minimum tread is 1.6mm (GOV.UK).
Drives, bays and car parks.
The multi storey at Brent Cross works for a car that is still driveable, provided the deck has headroom for a van and you give the level and the bay. Residential streets on the NW4 side are better again, out of the traffic and with room at the kerb. A drive, where there is one, beats both. What is not available is anything at the junction itself, the flyover, the slip roads or the industrial roads where lorries turn.
Three postcodes meet around here, NW2, NW4 and NW9, and the borough boundary runs through it as well, so an address a street apart can sit in Barnet or Brent. Calls come from the flats and houses on the Hendon side, from the shopping park and the retail units off the A5, and froM1drivers who have just come down the M1 and found somethinA406ong at the first set of lights. The junction itself is the problem: the A406 flyover, the Staples Corner roundabouts and the motorway approach are all places where a stopped car is a hazard and a fitter will not attend. ULEZ covers every part of this, charged on movement rather than on a wheel being taken off.

24 hours in Brent Cross.
Being the home patch, Brent Cross hears from people at every hour: drivers off the M1 late at night who have come to rest on a side street, and staff finishing at the shopping park. The phone is answered whenever it goes, the size you read out is checked against what the van can carry, and the whole cost is given there and then.
