The bit of the job nobody sees is getting the old tyre off the rim without wrecking the rim, and it is where cheap work does its damage. A tyre is held on by its beads, two steel-cored hoops that clamp against the inside of the wheel, and they hold hard. Breaking that seal is done with a machine that presses the sidewall away from the rim flange progressively, in the right place, with the wheel supported so it cannot flex. Done wrong, you get a scored flange that will never seal properly again and a wheel that leaks with a brand new tyre on it.
All of that lives on the van, which is what makes fitting at the roadside a real workshop job rather than an improvisation. The new tyre goes on with lubricant on the beads so nothing gets dragged over the flange, gets seated, balanced, and the wheel goes back torqued to the vehicle's figure.
Speed is the point, but only because the alternative is the car being off the road. The correct size is matched before we leave, the tyre is fitted and balanced where the car is standing in Fanshawe, Christchurch or anywhere between, and the pressures and valve are dealt with in the same visit. Same tools in Musley Hill as in Kibes Lane, same on every call. Valve in Trinity, balance in Westmill, pressures before we go.

Ware is an awkward town to move a damaged car around, with a tight High Street, cramped riverside parking and hills on the residential side. That is exactly why the equipment comes to the vehicle instead. Whether the car is on a driveway in Christchurch or pulled in off the A1170, the wheel comes off, the tyre is changed on the van and the car goes back on the road from where it stood.
Usually a damaged or corroded flange rather than a bad tyre. If the sealing face has been scored by rough fitting, the new tyre has nothing clean to seal against.
Older alloys build up a crust where the tyre sits. It gets cleaned back while the tyre is off, which is a two minute job that prevents a slow leak nobody could ever find later.
The lanes climbing towards Musley Hill are no place for improvised jacking. The van carries the gear to work safely on a gradient rather than only on a flat forecourt.
Yes. The bead breaker, the fitting machine, the balancer and the torque gear all travel with us, so the work is the same as it would be in a bay.
Not by us. The flange is the part that matters and it is protected throughout, because a scored flange is a leak you cannot cure without refinishing the wheel.
Every one, before you drive off. An unbalanced wheel shows itself as a shake through the steering as soon as you get up to any speed.
Usually 30 to 60 minutes and often quicker, since the A10 corridor is close to home for us.
It leaves with us for recycling. Nothing gets left by the kerb or against a wall behind you.
