There is almost nowhere legal to stop in SW1X, which is why a tyre going down turns into a standstill. The A4 takes traffic west past Cromwell Road and east to Hyde Park Corner with no room to pull over on either side. A car with a flat therefore stays in its space, whether that is a bay, a mews or a car park below a building, and the tyre is brought to it in the size read off the sidewall.

Tyre work in Knightsbridge.
A kerbed tyre is the common one round here. Split or bulged sidewalls mean the casing has gone, and no repair standard covers that, so a new tyre goes on and the rim gets a look over while the wheel is away. A tread puncture within what BS AU 159 permits is taken off the rim and patch-plugged from inside instead. Replacements follow the markings stamped on the tyre in place, run-flats included, and a nut whose key has disappeared is drawn off without touching the alloy.
Repairs follow BS AU 159; the legal minimum tread is 1.6mm (GOV.UK).
Drives, bays and car parks.
A mews or a private forecourt is the easiest surface in SW1X: firm, level and out of the traffic. An underground car park below a block or a hotel comes next, with clearance and permission the only real questions. A resident bay serves when the car is square inside it and the offside is not up against moving traffic. A car left on Brompton Road, on Knightsbridge, or anywhere along the A4 cannot be touched, and shifting it into a side street is the first thing to sort out.
Work in this district comes from three kinds of address. Mansion blocks and hotels with parking underneath, where the concierge or building manager has to be content for a van to come down the ramp. Mews houses and the streets around Hans Town, where a car stands on private ground with room to swing a wheel once the neighbours' cars allow it. And resident bays on the quieter roads towards Sloane Square and South Kensington. Off limits are the A4 in both directions, Grosvenor Place, and the Park Lane end of the A4202. The public car parks within reach, NCP London Pavilion Road among them, are underground and low-roofed, so headroom and the operator's rules settle whether a van gets in at all.

Late calls in SW1X come from hotels where a guest leaves at first light, and from residents who come home to find one wheel visibly down. The phone is answered at any point of the night or the weekend, the size is confirmed against the tyre, and the cost is agreed before anyone comes out.
