Mobile tyre fitting
in Rubery.
Rubery straddles the edge of Birmingham and Bromsgrove district along the A38 Bristol Road South, the road down to junction 4 of the M5 at Lydiate Ash. Rescue Tyres brings a replacement out and does the whole job at the roadside or on the drive.
A fitter at your car
in Rubery.
The A38 runs through the middle of Rubery, and it shapes most of the tyre calls. Traffic heading for Lydiate Ash or back into Birmingham passes along it all day, and a puncture picked up on it usually gets noticed once the car is parked at home in B45. Rose Hill and Lickey Road bring in the streets either side. Van drivers at Arden Business Park and Frankley Industrial Estate make up the rest. Pass on the B45 postcode and the size, and the fitter carries a match.

Tyre work in Rubery.
What gets done in Rubery covers every tyre job the van is built for. A new tyre is matched to the numbers on the old one, fitted, and balanced as part of the job. Punctures in the tread are inspected off the rim and, if they fall inside the BS AU 159 limits, repaired from within. A tyre that burst on the A38 is swapped and the rim looked over. Lost the key to the locking nuts? The wheel still comes off. The number is answered through the night.
Repairs follow BS AU 159; the legal minimum tread is 1.6mm (GOV.UK).
Drives, bays and car parks.
In Rubery a drive or a flat residential street off the A38 is the natural place to do the job. A yard at Arden Business Park or Frankley Industrial Estate suits a van or a pool car, once the site has agreed. The Tesco or Morrisons car park can work for a driveable car if the store says yes. Nothing happens on the A38 itself, on the approach roads to Lydiate Ash, or on any sloping stretch of Rose Hill where the car cannot sit level.
Rubery sits across a council boundary, part of it in Bromsgrove district and part in Birmingham, but the B45 postcode covers both and that is what the fitter works from. Jobs come in from houses along both sides of the A38, from the Rose Hill and Lickey Road ends, and from Rednal and Frankley next door. Most homes have somewhere off the road to park, and the tyre is usually changed right there. The Tesco and Morrisons car parks are possible spots for a car that still drives, with the store's agreement. Arden Business Park and Frankley Industrial Estate give trade vehicles proper yards. The Bristol Road South carriageway is not somewhere to work, so a car that fails on it is moved into a side road or car park. No clean-air charge applies anywhere in Rubery.
