Noticed a bulge, gash or cracked sidewall while the car was parked and unsure whether it's safe to drive off? Damage like this usually gets caught at a standstill, a lump you spot loading up near Eltham High Street, a split you see walking back to a space off Well Hall Road, or a chunk taken out after a hard kerb strike near the A20 Sidcup Road. Don't chance it. We come to the car and give you an honest verdict on whether it's driveable or done.
Noticed a bulge, gash or cracked sidewall while the car was parked and unsure whether it's safe to drive off?

Don't chance it. We come to the car and give you an honest verdict on whether it's driveable or done.
The blunt truth with sidewall and shoulder damage is that it can't be repaired safely, however small it looks. A bulge means the internal cords have already failed and the tyre could let go without warning, and a deep cut or a perished, cracked sidewall is the same story. If that's what we find, we say so plainly and fit a replacement from the van in the correct size right where you're parked. If it turns out to be shallow surface marking that hasn't reached the structure, we'll tell you it's fine and won't sell you a tyre you don't need. Eltham's kerbs around the busy High Street and the pinch points on the residential streets take a toll on sidewalls, and a knock you barely felt can leave hidden damage. Either way you get a straight answer and, where it's needed, a new tyre fitted on the spot. We're across SE9 day and night.
The tight kerbs along Eltham High Street and the parked-up streets off Well Hall Road catch plenty of sidewalls, and a hard knock against a kerb near the A20 Sidcup Road can crack a tyre without an obvious mark. We come to the parked car, judge the damage honestly and, where it's needed, replace on the spot so a suspect tyre never gets driven on.
The broken tyre replacement situations Eltham drivers call us out to most:
A driver clipped a kerb hard near the A20 Sidcup Road and found a sidewall bulge the next morning. We confirmed it was unsafe and fitted a replacement on the drive.
An older car parked off Well Hall Road had deep cracking along the sidewall. We explained why it couldn't be repaired and changed it where it stood.
A driver loading up near Eltham Palace noticed a gash in the tread shoulder. We judged it beyond saving and fitted a new tyre on the spot.
We also attend roadside broken tyre replacement on the main routes through Eltham, including A20 (Sidcup Road), A208 (Well Hall Road), A210 (Eltham High Street) and more, day and night.
No. A bulge means the internal cords have already failed and it can blow without warning, so leave it near Eltham High Street and we'll come out across SE9 to replace it.
It's worth a look. A knock against a kerb on Well Hall Road can harm a sidewall internally with little to see outside, so we'll inspect it and give a clear verdict.
Unfortunately not. Sidewall and shoulder damage falls outside the safe repair area, so a crack like the ones we see near the A20 Sidcup Road always means a replacement.
Yes. If the mark is shallow surface scuffing that hasn't reached the structure, we'll tell you it's fine rather than sell you a tyre you don't need.
We stock common car, SUV and 4x4 sizes on the van, so most damaged tyres in SE9 are matched and fitted right where the car's parked.

I clipped the kerb when parking, damaging the wall of my tyre. I contacted Fast Tyre at 21:37 and by 23:40 I had a new tyre fitted. Excellent service and both boys were friendly and efficient.
5 star without a doubt! Called this morning with a complete flat tyre in N13 and within 30 minutes Abdul arrived and changed it. He also checked all 4 tyres and showed me one was completely bald and dangerous to drive.
Honestly wish I could give more than 5 stars! Last night after leaving Wembley we got a flat tyre, stranded 2 hours from home, and these guys got us back up and running. 10/10 service from start to finish, even at 1am!
