A fair question before anybody sets off is whether the tyre you need will actually be aboard. The honest answer is that most fitments do travel with the fitter, because the sizes that turn up on cars around here are the sizes carried, in budget, mid-range and premium. Some do not. Large diameters with very short sidewalls, staggered setups where the rear differs from the front, and a handful of the more specialised patterns are not things anybody carries speculatively. That is why the size gets asked for on the phone. Read out the whole string from the sidewall, including the letters at the end, and you will be told before the van leaves whether it is on board or whether it has to be sourced.
What you will not get is a fitter turning up hopefully, looking at the wheel and going away again. If something has to be brought in, you hear that at the start along with a realistic time, and quite often a repair is possible anyway which makes the whole question academic. Meanwhile the car stays where it stopped, which around here means a lane near St George's Hill, a driveway in Oatlands Village or the roadside on the A317, rather than being nursed towards the M25 at Junction 11 on a tyre that will not survive the trip.
Flat on the M25 near junction 11 with nowhere sensible to stop, or flat on the drive at seven in the morning: the answer starts the same way, which is that somebody has to look at it properly. Whether it is St George's Hill in rush hour or the A3050 at midnight, we answer. On Monument Hill, day or night, Oatlands Village included, arrival across Surrey runs 30 to 60 minutes.

Weybridge runs a lot of cars on fitments that are not the ordinary ones, between the roads around Brooklands and the lanes off Monument Hill, so the size question is worth settling in the first minute of the call rather than the last. Read the marking off the failed wheel, hear a straight answer, and leave the car exactly where it stopped while the right thing is brought to it.
A driver near Brooklands read the full sidewall marking over the phone. The size was aboard, it was said so plainly, and the tyre was fitted on the first visit.
A car with wider rears where the size on the front wheel was not the size needed. Reading the marking off the actual damaged wheel avoided bringing entirely the wrong tyre out.
An unusual fitment near Hamm Court that was not on the van. The owner knew that within a minute of ringing, along with when it could be there, instead of after a wasted visit.
Usually. The everyday car, SUV and 4x4 sizes travel with the fitter in every price tier. Give us the marking off the sidewall on the call and you will know before anybody sets off.
Off the sidewall of the tyre that has failed, not another wheel, because they are not always the same. It is also repeated on the plate in the driver's door shut.
You are told immediately and given a realistic time for sourcing it. Often the tyre turns out to be repairable in any case, which settles the matter on the same visit.
Wherever possible, and it is worth asking for. Keeping an axle consistent matters more than most people realise, particularly on a car with different sizes front and rear.
Yes. Tell us anything about access or gates when you ring, since that is the only local detail likely to slow an arrival down.
