Three details to explain when you call
- Where the visible damage appears, if it is safe to look
- Whether the tyre went flat suddenly or lost pressure slowly
- Whether you have driven on it or used a temporary sealant
Why the tyre must be inspected
Not all damage can be judged from outside the tyre. The technician assesses its condition and whether a safe repair is possible. Damage near or on the sidewall can rule out a repair.
What if repair is ruled out?
Ask about a suitable replacement and any available tyre ranges. The exact size and vehicle requirements matter. If you have a usable spare, tell us so that option can also be assessed.
