Lost the key for your locking wheel nut, or found one seized solid or rounded off? On its own that little nut can bring a tyre change to a dead stop, because the wheel simply won't come off without it. It catches people out at the worst times, a flat on the drive with no key in the glovebox, a nut spun round by a previous garage, or one corroded so tight the key just slips. We deal with exactly this across Golders Green, coming to the car wherever it's parked, from a bay near the station to a driveway in Hampstead Garden Suburb.
Lost the key for your locking wheel nut, or found one seized solid or rounded off?

We carry specialist removal tools designed to grip and back out a stubborn, rounded or keyless locking nut without chewing up the alloy around it, then we fit a standard replacement nut so you're not left with the same problem next time. Once the nut's off, we get on with the actual job, whether that's a puncture repair or a full replacement, and you drive away sorted. It's a genuinely different service from a straightforward tyre change, and one a lot of mobile fitters can't handle, but for us it's routine. So if a missing key or a wrecked nut is all that stands between you and a working wheel, that's not a reason to call out recovery; it's a call to us. We cover NW11 around the clock for exactly these hold-ups.
A seized or keyless locking wheel nut can strand you on your own drive in the Suburb even when a spare or a fitter is right there, since the wheel won't come off without it. We bring specialist extraction tools to streets from the station to Temple Fortune, remove the nut without harming the alloy and fit a fresh one, then change the tyre in the same visit.

A driver near Golders Green station had a flat but no locking nut key in the car. We removed the nut with our own tools and changed the tyre on the spot.
A locking nut corroded tight on a car in Hampstead Garden Suburb wouldn't budge. We backed it out without damaging the alloy and fitted a replacement nut.

Absolutely fantastic service! I called Fast Tyre urgently needing a tyre replaced and Abdul arrived quickly and put my mind at ease.
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.
