Mobile Tyre Fitting in Hampstead

Your local mobile tyre service in Hampstead

Hampstead is the high ground of north London. The village grew up around the top of Heath Street and the High Street, and the roads falling away from it, Christchurch Hill, Downshire Hill and the lanes down towards South End Green, are steep, narrow and lined with cars that have nowhere else to go. The A502 climbs through the middle on Rosslyn Hill and Heath Street, the Royal Free Hospital sits lower down on Pond Street, and on a fine weekend every bay near the Heath is taken by lunchtime.

On streets like these a tyre change comes down to where the jack can safely go. We bring the replacement to the car, whether that is a resident bay off Heath Street, the hospital car park or a quiet road in Frognal, chock the wheels against the slope and fit it there, usually within 30 to 60 minutes of your call.

The trouble with driving a damaged tyre out of Hampstead is that every route goes downhill first. Heath Street and Rosslyn Hill drop towards Camden, Fitzjohn's Avenue drops towards Swiss Cottage, and East Heath Road winds round the Heath with very little room to pull in. A soft tyre on a descent with a queue at the bottom is exactly how a repairable puncture becomes a ruined tyre and a scuffed rim. Add a controlled parking zone that makes any stop away from home a gamble, and staying put while the fitter comes to you is plainly the better choice.

Tyre services we offer in Hampstead

For NW3 we load car, SUV, 4x4 and van tyres in premium, mid range and budget lines, with run-flat sizes for the cars that left the factory without a spare. A clean tread puncture is repaired to BS AU 159 rather than replaced, a missing locking nut key is no obstacle, and on the steeper streets the car is chocked and lifted only at its proper jacking point. Card or contactless at the kerb once the wheel is back on.

Tyres we fit in Hampstead

Whatever is on the car now, we carry the common fitments on the van and can order anything we do not. Read the size off the sidewall, something like 205/55 R16 91V, or give us the registration and we will match it.

• Car and hatchback tyres. Standard car and hatchback sizes across all three price tiers, balanced on site with the pressures set to the manufacturer plate.
• 4x4, SUV and crossover tyres. Heavier vehicles need the right load index as well as the right size, so we match the rating on the sidewall rather than just the dimensions.
• Winter and all-season tyres. A summer compound hardens below about seven degrees. An all-season tyre carrying the three-peak mountain snowflake mark stays soft through the cold months without the noise of a full winter tyre.
• Run-flat tyres. We stock and fit run-flats. If one has been driven on deflated it needs replacing, not patching, and the pair on that axle should match.
• Performance and premium brands. Michelin, Continental, Bridgestone, Pirelli and Goodyear. The tyre label grades wet braking from A downwards, and the gap between an A and an E is measured in car lengths.
• Budget and mid-range tyres. There is nothing wrong with a budget tyre fitted properly. We will tell you honestly which axle is worth spending on rather than selling you four premiums.
• Van and light commercial. Light commercial fitments with the correct C rating and load index, because a car tyre on a working van is an insurance question as well as a safety one.

Most jobs in Hampstead are done the same day, at the address where the car is already parked.
