Whitley's tyre calls cluster round its junctions. London Road, the A4114, runs straight through, Whitley Island links it to the A444, and Humber Road and Allard Way lead off towards Stoke Aldermoor and the east of the city. Trade traffic heading for the business parks drops screws and swarf onto those roads. Give the tyre size and the spot where the car has stopped, and the fitter sets off with a matching tyre on board.

What we do in Whitley
Tyre work in Whitley.
For Whitley, the work is whatever the vehicle needs on the day. A tyre that has worn thin or been damaged gets a successor carrying the same size and load index, which matters for vans. Nails and screws lodged mid-tread are mended to BS AU 159 after the fitter has inspected the casing from inside; anything outside that zone means a replacement. Blowouts get a new tyre. A missing locking key does not stop the job, since the nut comes off and a plain one replaces it. There is a callout service through the night as well.
Repairs follow BS AU 159; the legal minimum tread is 1.6mm (GOV.UK).
Where we work in Whitley
Drives, bays and car parks.
For a van, an estate yard or unit forecourt is ideal once the site manager knows. A home drive or a firm kerb on a residential street suits a car. The Lidl or Co-op Food car parks do the job when the car can still get there under its own power, left at the far end from the doors. The carriageways of Whitley Island, the A4114 London Road, Allard Way and Humber Road are not usable places to lift a vehicle, day or night.
Whitley is a mixture of housing and business parks. Bilton Industrial Estate, Read Street Industrial Estate and Pilot Business Park are within reach, so a good share of calls involve vans and company cars. The residential side is mostly CV3 homes with drives or kerbside parking, running towards Cheylesmore and Lower Stoke. A yard on an estate is fine, as long as the people running it expect the van. London Road and Whitley Island are the obvious no-go spots: with traffic moving at speed there is nowhere to jack a car safely, so leave the island and pull into a side road first. The name is shared with several other places around England, which is why the CV3 postcode matters when you ring. Nothing is payable for clean air anywhere in Coventry.
Nights and weekends
24 hours in Whitley.
Shift workers on the Whitley business parks and drivers coming off the A444 late are the usual night callers. Ring whenever the tyre goes: the phone is answered, the full figure for visit and tyre is given on the spot, and the fitter only heads out once you are happy with it.

Whitley FAQs
Questions from Whitley.
Is this the Whitley in Coventry?
It is. This page covers Whitley on the south side of Coventry, CV3, around London Road and Whitley Island. Other towns and villages carry the name too, so if your postcode begins with something other than CV3, say where you are and the address will be checked.
Can you fit van tyres on the Bilton Industrial Estate?
Van tyres are a regular job on the estates round Whitley. Send the size, including the load rating, and tell the site a fitter is coming. The van can stay in the yard while the tyre is changed and balanced, so it is back in service without a garage visit.
My tyre blew on Whitley Island. What should I do?
Keep rolling gently to the first safe exit and pull up on a side street or in a car park, well clear of the island, hazards flashing. If the car is stuck and traffic puts you at risk, ring 999. Once you are off the roundabout, call us with the location.
Do you cover Humber Road and Allard Way?
Both are covered, along with the streets off them and the business parks nearby. The fitter will not work on either road itself, so by the time the van arrives the car should be parked on a side street, a driveway or a car park.
