Mobile tyre fitting
in Crook Log.
Crook Log is a name that belongs to a road first, the A207 between Welling and the Broadway, and to the streets either side of it second. Rescue Tyres brings the fitting kit to the spot where you have parked.
A fitter at your car
in Crook Log.
Traffic is the constant here. Crook Log carries the A207 straight through, joining Welling High Street at one end and Broadway at the other, and a tyre that picks something up on that run rarely gives much warning. Then there are the turnings off it, where a kerb catches a sidewall on the way into a parking space. Neither needs the car taken anywhere. Read out the size from the tyre wall, or the registration, and the replacement travels with the fitter.

Tyre work in Crook Log.
Four jobs come up. A replacement tyre that repeats the markings of the one it succeeds, with nothing downgraded on load or speed, chosen from budget through to premium, with EV, performance, winter, 4x4, van and run-flat patterns among them; a tread puncture stripped off the rim, examined inside and patch-plugged to BS AU 159 when the damage allows; a blown tyre swapped with the rim gone over first; and a locking nut wound off if its key has gone missing. The line is staffed around the clock.
Repairs follow BS AU 159; the legal minimum tread is 1.6mm (GOV.UK).
Drives, bays and car parks.
Drives take most of it, and a car on one can be left exactly as it is. Off the main road the side streets are quiet enough to work in, as long as the car is well away from a bend and not parked over a dropped kerb. For anyone without a drive, Oaklands Car Park is the nearest public parking with room to get a jack under a car. The A207 through Crook Log and the Broadway is not one of the choices.
The pull here is towards Bexleyheath, a short run along the A207, and Bexleyheath station is the nearest platform for anyone commuting. Addresses fall in DA6 and DA7, so the postcode is worth giving in full. Calls arrive from the roads off Park View Road and Albion Road, from the Danson Road side where the A221 heads down to Danson Park, and from drivers who have come off the A2 at the Black Prince. Crook Log itself is a working road with buses on it, so a car sitting on a jack there is a bad idea. Turn into the residential streets instead, or use the public bays at Albion Road towards the Broadway.
