Mobile tyre fitting
in Foleshill.
Foleshill stretches out of the city along Foleshill Road and Stoney Stanton Road, two long routes lined with shops, terraces and trade premises. A Rescue Tyres van brings the new tyre and fitting kit to wherever the car sits in CV6 or CV2.
A fitter at your car
in Foleshill.
Foleshill Road is a working street from end to end, with cars parked tight along both kerbs and vans loading outside shops and wholesalers. That kerbside life is hard on tyres: sidewalls scuffed against kerbs, nails picked up near trade yards, and slow leaks that show when the car has sat overnight in a terrace. The fitter comes to the car, takes the wheel off where there is room to work, and weighs up mending against replacing.

Tyre work in Foleshill.
New tyres are sourced to the size printed on the sidewall and fitted at the kerb, and every wheel is balanced before refitting. A screw through the tread is pulled, the casing checked from inside, and the damage repaired to BS AU 159 if its position qualifies under that standard. A blowout gets a replacement. If nobody can find the locking nut key, the proper removal tool gets the nut off.
Repairs follow BS AU 159; the legal minimum tread is 1.6mm (GOV.UK).
Drives, bays and car parks.
A stretch of kerb in a side street is the usual working spot in Foleshill, and it works well when the car is flush and level. The rare driveway is better still. Supermarket car parks such as Aldi or Lidl suit a car that will still move under its own power, with the store's agreement. A yard belonging to a trade premises is fine if the owner says yes. Double yellow lines, bus stops and the carriageway of Foleshill Road are all out.
Most calls come from the terraced streets either side of Foleshill Road and Stoney Stanton Road, where cars live on the kerb because few houses have a drive. Those side streets are usually workable provided the flat corner is reachable without the fitter standing in passing traffic. The main roads are different: buses, deliveries and parked cars leave no safe space for a jacked vehicle, so a car stranded on Foleshill Road is best moved a few doors into a side turning first. Little Heath borders the district, with industrial estates where trade vans collect screws. The other way it runs towards Bell Green and the A444. Wholesale and cash and carry premises mean plenty of vans are parked up during the day.
