Full detail

Everything included with your same-day tyre fitting

No hidden extras, no vague pricing. Here's exactly what you get, what we bring, what to have ready and what happens afterwards.

What's included
  • Priority same-day slot — walk-in or drive-in
  • Full wheel-off safety inspection
  • New tyre fitted, balanced and torqued to spec
  • Old tyre taken away and legally recycled
  • Card, Apple Pay and Google Pay accepted
  • Advice on whether recovery to us is safer than driving in
Tools & parts we bring
  • Sidewall-safe tyre machine for alloys up to 22"
  • Workshop dynamic wheel balancer
  • Calibrated torque wrench (up to 250 Nm)
  • Shop stock of budget, mid-range and premium tyres
  • Locking wheel-nut master-key set
  • TPMS diagnostic and relearn tool
What to have ready
  • Your reg number so we can pull the correct size
  • The locking wheel-nut key if you have one
  • A quick call ahead so we can have the tyre off the shelf
When to call us
  • Complete blowout or rapid deflation
  • Sidewall bulge, cut or exposed cord
  • Tyre gone flat overnight on the driveway
  • Kerb strike at speed with steering vibration
Why this matters

Driving any distance on a flat or shredded tyre destroys the sidewall, rim and often the ABS sensor. A short recovery to our Catford workshop is almost always cheaper than the damage caused by nursing a wrecked tyre across London.

Aftercare & warranty
  • Recheck cold tyre pressures within 48 hours
  • Avoid harsh braking or full-lock steering for the first 100 miles while the tread beds in
  • Book a free alignment check if you hit a kerb or pothole hard
Common questions about same-day tyre fitting
How quickly can you fit me in?+

Walk-ins are almost always seen the same day. If you ring ahead we'll have the tyre off the shelf and a bay ready when you arrive.

Do you carry my tyre size?+

The 40 most common UK sizes are in stock. Specialist sizes (large SUV, performance, van) can usually be sourced within an hour from our local supplier.

Can I pay by card?+

Yes — card, Apple Pay and Google Pay. Fleet and trade accounts get 30-day terms after credit approval.

Frequently asked

Both work. Walk-ins are welcome for punctures, pressure checks and safety checks. For a new set of tyres, alignment or a service we recommend booking so we can have the right tyres ready when you arrive.
