Lorna Farndale's Mercedes-Benz A-Class AMG was travelling along Constitution Hill Ringway towards Worcester Cross Ringway when it struck an object on the dual carriageway. She was fortunately able to get away from the main Ringway and stop on Converting Hill before requesting mobile assistance.
The tyre had been damaged after being driven while flat, but no obvious cause of the initial deflation could be seen. Dan did, however, find a small crack on the inside of the alloy wheel. Because he had a suitable temporary spare wheel with the correct compatible fitment, he was able to fit it so Lorna could move the Mercedes while the damaged wheel was repaired.
Mercedes A-Class AMG – Flat Tyre & Hidden Alloy Crack Near Kidderminster Harriers
Lorna Farndale struck an object on Constitution Hill Ringway while travelling towards Worcester Cross Ringway. What began as a mobile tyre call-out developed into a cracked alloy repair, temporary spare-wheel solution, new Pirelli tyre and front-and-rear wheel alignment.
Lorna Farndale – Mercedes-Benz A-Class AMG
Lorna had been driving along the A451 Constitution Hill Ringway near Kidderminster Harriers FC when she struck an object in the road. She managed to leave the main carriageway and stop on Converting Hill before booking our mobile tyre fitting service online.
From Kidderminster Ringway to LTC Stourbridge
Lorna's case was unusual because Dan could temporarily fit a compatible spare wheel, allowing the Mercedes to move while the damaged original alloy was taken back for specialist welding.
Lorna was travelling towards Worcester Cross Ringway when the Mercedes struck an object on the main dual carriageway.
She was able to move away from the main carriageway and stop on Converting Hill before requesting assistance.
Lorna booked through the LTC website and then called our Stourbridge branch, where John confirmed that assistance would be sent.
Our mobile tyre and wheel repair specialist Dan reached Lorna within around 30 minutes for this particular call-out.
Dan found the tyre had been damaged from being driven while flat. He could not identify the original cause of deflation, but did find a small crack on the inside of the alloy rim.
Dan had a suitable temporary spare with the correct compatible fitment, allowing Lorna's Mercedes to be moved while the original wheel was taken for repair.
With the temporary wheel fitted, Lorna was able to follow Dan back to our Stourbridge branch approximately 8.1 miles away.
At the branch, the damaged tyre was removed and the small inner-rim crack was prepared and professionally repaired by alloy welding.
A new 225/40R18 92W Pirelli P Zero MO tyre was fitted to the repaired Mercedes alloy and the wheel was balanced.
The Mercedes wheel alignment was checked and adjustments were made to both the front and rear toe, with a before-and-after alignment printout supplied.
The temporary compatible wheel allowed the Mercedes to move to the workshop while the damaged original alloy was repaired.
One incident required alloy welding, a premium replacement tyre and front-and-rear wheel alignment.
Selected Temporary Spare Wheels & Variable-PCD Fitments
Some of our mobile tyre and wheel repair specialists carry selected spare wheels for common vehicle fitments. We may also carry wheels designed to cover more than one compatible PCD arrangement. Where the vehicle, dimensions and fitment are suitable, a temporary wheel can sometimes help us move the vehicle safely while the damaged original wheel is repaired.
Preparing & Welding an Inner-Rim Alloy Crack
92W
The damaged tyre was replaced with a new 225/40R18 92W Pirelli P Zero MO. The MO marking is the Mercedes-Benz original-equipment specification for this tyre application. After fitting, the repaired wheel and new tyre were balanced.
Front & Rear Toe Required Adjustment
Because the Mercedes had suffered a significant road impact, the wheel alignment was also checked at Stourbridge. Adjustments were required to both the front and rear toe, and Lorna received a before-and-after alignment printout showing the completed correction.

What Lorna's Ringway Breakdown Shows About Tyres, Cracked Wheels & Temporary Spares
Lorna's Mercedes case was not simply a puncture. The tyre had been damaged after running flat, a small crack was found on the inside of the alloy, a temporary spare was needed and the road impact had also affected front and rear wheel alignment.
One Road Impact — Four Different Jobs
Lorna's Mercedes required mobile assistance, cracked alloy wheel welding, a replacement Pirelli tyre and front-and-rear alignment adjustment. Having a suitable temporary spare on Dan's van also meant the vehicle could be moved while the original alloy was repaired.
“We were in need of an emergency mobile tyre. After getting ripped off high prices we phoned LTC and were given a great price, simple with no hidden costs. Dan arrived fast and was truly amazing. After being really worried that the alloy wheel might have been damaged, Dan inspected everything and took the time to show me and talk me through it, assuring me my wheel was fine, which was a big relief. Brilliant customer service and brilliant all round.”
