Tyre trouble in Westside?

in Westside.
In Westside, tyre trouble is mostly found rather than felt. Cars sit all evening in the Brindleyplace and arena car parks while their owners are out, and a slow puncture from the Ladywood Middleway or the Great Charles Street Queensway has time to empty the tyre. Scuffing a kerb on a tight car-park ramp adds sidewall damage. Call with the size and the car park, level and bay, and the fitter arrives with the right tyre.

What we do in Westside
Tyre work in Westside.
Plenty of Westside cars run on low-profile or run-flat tyres, and the fitter sources the correct size and load rating before setting out. A nail or screw in the main tread can be dealt with by an internal patch and plug when it meets the limits in BS AU 159. Tyres torn on a car-park kerb are replaced, lost locking-nut keys are no bar to getting the wheel off, and night callouts cover all of it.
Repairs follow BS AU 159; the legal minimum tread is 1.6mm (GOV.UK).
Where we work in Westside
Drives, bays and car parks.
Pay car parks are the working surface here, with the operator's permission. The kit is carried to the car where a height barrier keeps the van out, so give the level and bay number. A residents' car park in one of the apartment buildings works if someone can let the fitter in. Broad Street, the tram stops, taxi ranks and loading bays are not usable, and neither is the ring road.
Most calls come from car parks rather than streets. Drivers return to Q-Park Brindleyplace after dinner on Broad Street, concert crowds head back to Arena Birmingham South, and office staff at Brindleyplace discover a soft tyre when they clock off. Some calls come from the apartments near the Library tram stop, where residents keep cars parked in their own buildings. The fitter cannot work on Broad Street itself, which is busy with taxis and trams late into the night, nor on the Middleway or the Queensway. Westside is within the Clean Air Zone: an older car pays to be driven in, but not to be parked while its tyre is replaced.
Nights and weekends
24 hours in Westside.
Night calls here follow the evening: a meal on Broad Street, a gig at the arena, and a flat tyre waiting in the car park at the end of it. Ring at any hour, give the car park and bay, and the fitter's charge is confirmed to you before the van moves.

Westside FAQs
Questions from Westside.
Can you fit a tyre in the Brindleyplace car park late at night?
Work in the Q-Park at Brindleyplace depends on the operator's rules and on the car being reachable, which it usually is. The fitter carries the kit to the bay if the van cannot get in. Check your ticket covers the extra time the job takes.
I came back to the arena car park and my tyre is flat. What do you need?
The size from the sidewall, the level and bay, and whether the key for the locking wheel nuts is in the glovebox. With that, the fitter brings the correct tyre to Arena Birmingham South, or repairs the puncture if the damage allows it.
Does driving to Westside mean paying the Clean Air Zone charge?
Westside is inside the A4540 Middleway, so a non-compliant car driven here is charged. Nothing is added for fitting a tyre to a car that stays parked, and the ring road itself is uncharged if you are driving round rather than in.
Can you come to an apartment building near the Library tram stop?
Where the building has its own parking and someone can open the gate or barrier, the fitter works in the resident's bay. Street spaces near there are scarce, so private parking is usually the better option. Give the building name when you call.
