Alloy wheels get refurbished all over this part of London. The tyre that took the identical blow hardly ever gets a second glance, which is exactly the wrong way round. A scuffed wheel lip is ugly. A pinched sidewall is dangerous, and it does not always announce itself the day it happens. Speed bumps, bus lane kerbs and the perpetual squeeze between parked cars mean this borough produces far more impact damage than it does worn out tread. When you ring us about a mark you are unsure of, we come and give a verdict rather than a sales pitch, and a fair proportion of those verdicts are that the tyre is sound and you should keep your money.
Most damaged tyres are not dramatic. They come from a kerb taken slightly too fast on Western Avenue, a pothole nobody saw, or a bulge noticed while walking back to the car in Ealing Broadway. Whether it is Northfields in rush hour or the North Circular at midnight, we answer. On Great West Road, day or night, Hanwell included, arrival across W5 runs 30 to 60 minutes.

If something hard was struck on a residential street near Northfields or South Ealing, have the front and rear on that side looked at together. Whichever wheel hit it first, the one behind usually met the same edge a moment later, and that is the tyre nobody thinks to check until it fails on the A40.
Squeezed past a bus, caught the nearside on the kerb, and the owner only rang because the alloy looked scarred. The wheel was cosmetic. The tyre had a faint crease running along the sidewall where it had been crushed against the rim, and that one had to come off.
Something sharp on the road surface had opened the shoulder. Once the reinforcing cords are visible there is no argument to have: the casing has lost its strength and the tyre is finished, whatever the tread depth says.
Parked most of the week near Pitshanger and barely used. The rubber had hardened and crazed with age rather than mileage, and fine cracking had spread across both shoulders. Age gets tyres that mileage never touches, and low use cars are where we see it.
Yes. A swelling means the cords inside have parted and only rubber is holding the pressure. It is the one fault where no reasonable fitter will tell you to keep an eye on it.
Please do. A clear picture of the damage and of the sidewall markings often settles whether we come out to inspect or come out with a replacement already loaded.
Not necessarily, and that is worth a second opinion. We will look at both tyres and tell you if the surviving one genuinely has life in it. Our 4.9 star rating did not come from selling people pairs they did not need.
Then age is the thing to check, not tread. Rubber perishes on the shelf and on the driveway. We look at the sidewall cracking rather than just reading the date and guessing.
We take it away and dispose of it correctly. Nobody wants a dead tyre rolling about in a boot, still less a trip to a tip in a car that may not be compliant.
