Will it last until the end of the month? That is the question we are really being asked when somebody sends a photograph of a damaged tyre, and the answer depends entirely on what the damage is. A bulge cannot last a week, because the cords holding the tyre together have already broken and only air pressure is keeping its shape. A shallow scrape on the shoulder may well last another year. Cracked, hardened rubber is somewhere in between and is about the age of the tyre rather than the miles on it. We come and look, and you get told which one it is rather than what would suit us to sell.
Parallel parking damages more tyres than potholes do. Anywhere with tight kerbside bays, Seven Sisters Road A503 included, produces a steady supply of scuffed sidewalls. If it has gone too far, we bring the right size and fit it where the car is parked, in Manor House or anywhere else in Finsbury Park, balanced and pressure-set, with no tow and no garage booking. School run in Woodberry Down or 1am in Fonthill Road, we answer the same. Christmas Day in Wells Terrace, any day in Stroud Green: the line is open.

Narrow streets, cars parked both sides and constant kerb work around Fonthill Road do real damage to tyres and wheels. We come to yours, inspect it where it stands and give you a straight verdict, which is frequently that the tyre is sound and your money stays in your pocket.
Getting past a delivery on a narrow street had scrubbed the outside of the tyre hard. The wheel was scuffed, the bead was intact, and the pressure held overnight. Nothing needed replacing.
Visible from several feet away on a rear sidewall. Once a casing bulges like that it can burst without notice, so the car stayed put and we brought the replacement to it.
Driven twice a week, parked outside for years, tread still deep. Both sidewalls had crazed all over with fine cracks. Age had finished the pair off long before wear ever would.
Not with a bulge. Park it and let us come out. With a scuff or a shallow cut, short local trips are usually fine until we see it.
An impact, usually: a sunken drain edge or a high kerb catching the wheel and crushing the sidewall between rim and road. The cords break instantly and the lump surfaces later, sometimes weeks later.
Yes, regularly. Plenty of the tyres we are called to look at are perfectly serviceable and their owners drive off on them.
Not always, but the bead sits right where a kerb lands, so it is worth both being checked. Bead damage often shows up later as a leak nobody can find.
There is no fixed number, but perishing tells you. Once the sidewall is crazed with fine cracks the rubber has hardened and grip has gone, however much tread remains.
