A destroyed tyre is inconvenient at home and a genuine problem two hundred miles from it, which is a situation Windsor produces regularly.
That is a supply exercise, and it starts at the sidewall. The full code gives width, profile, rim diameter, load index and speed rating, and we need all of it before setting off. If it is a size we carry it is already on the van; if it is not, it is generally a same day collection rather than a wait until tomorrow, and you will be told which on the phone.
The old tyre leaves with us for recycling, so nothing is abandoned in a car park or on a verge.
Failing an MOT on a tyre is an expensive way to find out, and it usually happens on the day you needed the car. We bring the correct size to wherever the car is, in Dedworth or at the test centre car park and fit it there, balanced and pressure-set. Ring at 3am from Datchet and someone answers; Dedworth at noon is no different. A 4am Clewer call and a noon Eton call reach the same fitter.

Between visitors, the M4 and the roads towards Ascot, plenty of the replacements we do in Windsor are for drivers with no local garage and no wish to go looking for one. It works because the tyre, the balancer, the card machine and the recycling all arrive together, and the car is properly set up before it moves rather than limping off on a space saver.
A driver in an unfamiliar hire car had a tyre beyond repair and no idea what was fitted to it. We read the size off the sidewall together over the phone, brought the match out, and the paperwork for the hire company was straightforward afterwards.
Every hour a licensed vehicle stands still is money, so a same day fit rather than a booking for tomorrow mattered more than the choice of tyre. The size was on the van and the driver was working again within the hour of us arriving.
One front was destroyed and the other was down near the wear bars in Dedworth. One new tyre against a nearly bald one would have made the car pull under braking, so a pair went on and the reasoning was explained before anything was fitted.

Very fast response, sourced the tyre I needed quickly and arrived within an hour. Transparent with costing and super friendly. Definitely recommend in an emergency.
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.
Yes, and a large part of what we do here is exactly that. You need no account, no history with us and no local address. Tell us where the car is and what the sidewall says; payment is by card or contactless at the vehicle.
Read the whole line off the sidewall, for example 205/60 R16 92V: width, profile, rim size, then load index and speed rating. A photograph is easier if the light is poor, and include anything that says run-flat or reinforced.
We aim to match, particularly across an axle. Where the exact tyre is unavailable, an equivalent goes on in the same size, load index and speed rating rather than the specification being quietly dropped to something cheaper.
Yes, it goes with the van for recycling at no extra charge. That matters more than it sounds in a multi-storey or a hotel car park, where leaving a wrecked tyre propped against a wall is not an option.
If your car came with one, keep it serviceable and check its pressure occasionally. Many cars no longer have anywhere to put one. Either way a spare only gets you as far as a fitter, and we are the fitter, so it is a convenience rather than a solution.
