Spare wheel fitted safely and correctly. Flat wheel removed, spare fitted and torqued properly. Professional wheel change, back on the road.
### Stuck With a Flat Wheel?
Punctures happen. Hit a pothole wrong, pick up a nail, kerb the wheel badly - suddenly you're going nowhere until that wheel's changed.
Some people don't know how to change a wheel. Some do but can't physically manage it - seized nuts, awkward jack points, bad back. Some just don't want to do it in work clothes, in the rain, or on a busy road.
I change wheels properly and safely. Car jacked correctly, nuts removed with proper tools, spare checked and fitted, everything torqued right. Quick, professional, job done.
> 💡 **Pro tip:** After any wheel change, get your wheel nuts rechecked after 50 miles. They often need retightening after initial settlement.

Good to Know
> 🚗 **Space-saver fitted?** Max 50mph, limited mileage. Get to a tyre shop ASAP for proper repair or replacement. **Locking wheel nuts won't shift?** I carry tools that can usually remove them even without the key. If the key's broken or lost, I can often still get the wheel off. **Spare is flat too?** If I can inflate it enough to limp to a garage, I will. Otherwise you'll need recovery to get the car moved.
Frequently Asked Questions about Wheel change spare in Sidmouth
What's the difference between a spare tyre and spare wheel change?
Same thing really - changing your flat tyre/wheel for the spare. Some people call it tyre change, some call it wheel change. Either way, I'm swapping your flat for the spare and getting you mobile again.
Can you come to me if I've got a flat?
Yes - if you're at home, work, or parked safely somewhere in Sidmouth. I can't attend motorways (that's breakdown service territory), but anywhere else that's safe to jack the car, I'll come and sort it.
What if my spare is also flat?
Then we've got a problem. I'll check your spare first - if it's got enough pressure to get you to a tyre shop, I can inflate it and fit it. If it's completely flat or damaged, you'll need the car recovered or towed.
Will you check my spare before fitting it?
Always - first thing I do. No point taking your wheel off if the spare's no good. I check pressure, condition, whether it's safe to use. If there's an issue, I'll tell you before we start.
How long after fitting a space-saver spare can I drive on it?
Get to a tyre shop within a few days. Space-saver spares (the skinny temporary ones) are for getting you home or to a garage only - max 50mph, limited miles. Not for extended driving.
