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.

More Than a Mobile Tyre Call-Out Dan found a hidden inner-rim crack and had a compatible temporary spare available.

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.

Cracked Alloy Wheel Small inner-rim cracks may need specialist preparation and professional alloy welding.
Tyre Damaged While Flat Driving on a deflated tyre can damage the casing even when the original cause is no longer obvious.
Post-Impact Alignment Strong road impacts can also affect front and rear wheel geometry.

A Useful Part of Our Mobile Wheel Repair Service

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.

Vehicle Compatibility Checked A temporary wheel is only used where the fitment is suitable for the particular vehicle.
Useful for Workshop Repairs It can allow the damaged alloy to travel separately for welding or straightening while the vehicle remains movable.
Availability Varies We do not carry a compatible spare for every vehicle, so this service depends on the wheels available on the mobile van at the time.

Kidderminster Wheel Damage Advice

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.

Real Kidderminster Case

Genuine Google Review
“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.”

Kidderminster-Specific Questions

Questions Drivers Often Don't Think About Until a Wheel Is Damaged

These answers are based around the problems encountered during Lorna's Kidderminster call-out, including inner-rim cracks, temporary spare wheels, premium tyre fitment and post-impact alignment.

Can an alloy wheel crack without the crack being visible from the outside?
Yes. Lorna's Mercedes had a small crack on the inside of the alloy rim. Inner-rim damage can be difficult to see while the wheel is fitted, which is why removing and inspecting the complete wheel can reveal damage that is not obvious from the outside face.
If the tyre is already ruined, does it still matter what originally caused it to go flat?
It is useful to identify the original cause where possible, but that is not always possible after a tyre has been driven while flat. In Lorna's case, the tyre itself had suffered running-flat damage and Dan could not see a definite original puncture source, although he did find a small crack in the alloy wheel.
Why would LTC fit a temporary spare instead of repairing the wheel at the roadside?
Specialist alloy welding is workshop work. Because Dan had a suitable temporary spare wheel for Lorna's Mercedes, he could fit it to make the vehicle movable while the cracked original wheel was taken back to the Stourbridge branch for preparation and professional welding.
What is a variable-PCD spare wheel and why is it useful on a mobile van?
PCD means Pitch Circle Diameter, which describes the bolt-circle pattern used to mount a wheel to a vehicle hub. Some temporary wheel systems are designed to accommodate more than one compatible fitment. This can allow one carefully selected spare wheel to suit several vehicles, provided the PCD, centre fitment, clearance and other relevant dimensions are suitable.
Does carrying spare wheels mean LTC will always have one that fits my car?
No. Our mobile tyre and wheel repair specialists may carry selected popular spare wheels and variable-fitment options, but availability depends on the vehicle and what is on the van at the time. A spare wheel is only fitted when it is compatible and suitable for temporary use.
Why did Lorna follow Dan back to the Stourbridge branch instead of waiting in Kidderminster?
Once Dan fitted the compatible temporary wheel, the Mercedes was movable. Lorna was therefore able to follow him back to LTC Stourbridge while the damaged original alloy was transported separately for workshop welding, tyre replacement and balancing.
Why was a Mercedes-approved MO tyre fitted?
Lorna's replacement tyre was a 225/40R18 92W Pirelli P Zero MO. The MO marking identifies a Mercedes-Benz original-equipment specification. The correct tyre choice depends on the vehicle, size, load and speed requirements, so we match the replacement tyre to the appropriate application.
Can hitting something on the road affect the rear alignment as well as the front?
It can. The effect depends on the vehicle and how the impact is transmitted through the wheel and suspension. When Lorna's Mercedes was checked, adjustments were required to both the front and rear toe, which is why a full geometry check can be worthwhile after significant wheel damage.
Why is a before-and-after wheel alignment printout useful?
It gives the customer a record of the measured geometry before correction and the results after adjustment. Lorna received a before-and-after printout after the front and rear toe settings were corrected at Stourbridge.
Can I book a Kidderminster mobile tyre call-out online and then speak to the branch?
Yes. Lorna booked our mobile tyre fitting service through the LTC website and then called the Stourbridge branch to confirm the booking. Branch manager John spoke to her and advised that one of our mobile tyre and wheel specialists would be on the way shortly.
Is £268 the standard price for a cracked wheel repair in Kidderminster?
No. £268 including VAT was the total for Lorna's specific Mercedes job: £30 mobile call-out, £60 wheel repair, £118 replacement Pirelli tyre and £60 front-and-rear wheel alignment. Other jobs vary according to tyre size, wheel damage, location and the repair work required.
