Run-flat tyres: what most drivers get wrong

Run-flats let you keep driving after a puncture - typically around 50 miles at up to 50mph. Brilliant when it happens on a motorway at night.

Three things people don't realise:

Once run flat, it's finished. Even if it looks fine, the sidewall has done its job and cannot be repaired.

You often can't feel it. Many run-flat cars have no spare at all, so your TPMS warning light is the only thing telling you.

They're not universally repairable. Some manufacturers rule it out entirely.

Not sure whether yours are run-flats? Look for RFT, ROF, ZP or DSST on the sidewall.

Go and check whether you actually have a spare. We'll wait.

Most new cars sold in the last decade don't come with one. You get a can of sealant and a compressor instead - saves weight, saves the manufacturer money, and works fine right up until it doesn't.

That gunk won't help you with:

A sidewall tear
A blowout
Anything bigger than a small tread puncture
A wheel you can't get off, because the locking nut key is missing

It also makes a proper repair harder afterwards, and some fitters won't touch a sealant-filled tyre.

If you've got no spare and no sealant that'll work - that's the situation we exist for.

Never used a mobile tyre fitter? Here's exactly what happens.

1. You call or send a quote request. Tell us the registration or the tyre size, and where the vehicle is. Tyre size is on the sidewall - something like 205/55 R16.

2. We give you a complete price. Before anyone travels. Not an estimate.

3. We come to the vehicle. Home, work, roadside, car park. You don't have to be standing there in the rain - plenty of people leave the keys and get on with their day.

4. We fit and balance on site. The van carries everything a garage bay has.

5. Your old tyre leaves with us. Disposal included.

No waiting room. No courtesy car. No day off work.

Steering wobbles at 50-70mph? That's a balance problem.

A wheel that's out of balance by a few grams doesn't feel like much standing still. At 60mph it's spinning about 800 times a minute, and that tiny imbalance turns into a vibration you feel through the wheel or the seat.

Left alone it doesn't stay a comfort issue. It wears tyres unevenly and puts avoidable load through wheel bearings and suspension.

Common causes: a lost balance weight after a pothole, a new tyre that wasn't balanced properly, or uneven wear.

Every new tyre we fit is balanced on site as part of the job - not an extra.

Which bit of Leeds are you in?

We cover all of it - but people always ask about their own area, so:

Headingley, Horsforth, Pudsey, Morley, Roundhay
Garforth, Rothwell, Wetherby, Otley
Chapel Allerton, Moortown, Alwoodley, Bramley, Beeston

And beyond Leeds: Bradford, Wakefield, Huddersfield and Harrogate.

If you want the definitive answer rather than a place name: all LS postcodes, plus BD, WF, HD and HG.

Not sure? Ring and ask. It's a ten-second question.

Why part-worn tyres are usually a false economy

A part-worn tyre with 4mm left costs maybe half the price of new - but a new tyre starts at 8mm. So you're paying 50% for around 25% of the usable life.

That's before you get to what you can't see: previous repairs, internal damage from a kerb strike, or age. A tyre can have plenty of tread and still be a decade old and hardening.

UK law does set standards for selling part-worns, but enforcement is patchy and a lot of stock doesn't meet them.

New tyres supplied, fitted, balanced and your old one taken away - from £55.

"From £45" - from £45 plus what, exactly?

Tyre pricing is full of extras that appear at the end. Before you agree to anything, check the number includes all five:

The tyre
Fitting
Balancing
A new valve
Disposal of your old tyre

Miss those and a "£45 tyre" is comfortably £65 by the time you pay.

We quote the complete price before anyone travels. What we say on the phone is what you pay at the kerbside - and if we find something that changes it, we tell you before we start, not after.

Only replacing two tyres? The new ones go on the BACK.

This surprises people every time - including front-wheel-drive drivers, who assume the new rubber belongs on the driven wheels.

It doesn't. Here's why:

If the front loses grip you get understeer - the car pushes wide, and most drivers instinctively lift off and recover.

If the rear loses grip you get oversteer - the back steps out. That's much harder to catch, and it happens fastest in standing water at speed.

So the better tyres go where losing grip is most dangerous: the rear axle. Every time, regardless of which wheels drive the car.

If a fitter offers to put your new pair on the front, ask them why.

A van off the road is a day's income gone

That's the real cost of a van tyre - not the tyre, the day.

We fit C-rated commercial tyres for vans and light commercials up to 3.5 tonnes, at your yard, your driveway or wherever the van broke down. From £90 fitted.

Van tyres aren't just bigger car tyres: they run higher pressures, carry heavier loads and need the right load index. Fitting a passenger tyre to a working van is both unsafe and an insurance problem.

Sole traders, fleets and everyone in between. Across Leeds and West Yorkshire.

That horseshoe-shaped warning light

It's your TPMS - tyre pressure monitoring system. Mandatory on cars sold in the EU and UK since 2014.

What it's telling you depends on how it behaves:

Solid light - at least one tyre is meaningfully low. Check all four cold, including the pressure, not just how it looks.

Flashing for a minute, then solid - that's a system fault, not a pressure warning. Usually a dead sensor battery. They last around 5-10 years and can't be recharged.

Comes on every cold morning, goes off later - often normal. Air contracts when it's cold. If it's borderline, a top-up sorts it.

Either way it's an MOT failure if the light is on when you present the car.
