Your First Mobile Tyre Fitting: What to Expect on the Day

First time using a mobile tyre fitting service? Here's a walkthrough of exactly what happens from the moment you book to the moment we drive away.

If you've never used a mobile tyre fitting service before, you might not know quite what to expect. Here's an honest, step-by-step walkthrough of what happens.

Step 1: Booking

You can book via our website contact form or by phone. We'll ask for your vehicle registration (so we can confirm the correct tyre size), your location, your preferred date and time window, and any relevant details about the situation (flat tyre, routine change, etc.).

Step 2: Confirmation

We'll confirm your booking and — where possible — give you a specific arrival window. For planned bookings this is typically a two-hour window. For emergency callouts, we'll give you a realistic ETA at the time of calling.

Step 3: The Technician Arrives

Our technician will arrive in a branded Vantage van. They'll introduce themselves, confirm the vehicle and job, and position the van safely. They'll need access to the wheels — so clear any obstacles if the vehicle is on a narrow driveway.

Step 4: The Fitting

The technician removes the wheel, takes the old tyre off the rim, fits the new tyre, balances the wheel on the van's balancing equipment, refits the wheel, and torques the bolts to the manufacturer's specified setting. For a single tyre, this typically takes 20–30 minutes. A full set of four takes around 60–90 minutes.

Step 5: Completion

The technician will show you the old tyres (so you can see the wear or damage), confirm the work done, and take payment. They'll dispose of the old tyres responsibly — there's no need to find somewhere to dump them.

That's it. Simple, efficient, and with zero disruption to your day.
