Kerry O’Leary called us from Northfield Train Station, B31 2QJ after being let down by another tyre company. Fortunately, Wesley had just finished another mobile job near Longbridge and was able to reach her quickly.
Wesley reached Kerry within around 15 minutes for this specific call-out. After removing the wheel he found a nail close to the inner tyre wall and a flat-spot buckle on the rear of the alloy wheel, meaning the tyre and wheel both needed attention.

A Nail Caused Kerry's Flat Tyre — But It Didn't Explain the Buckled Wheel
Kerry's VW Golf had two separate problems: a nail close to the inner tyre wall and a flat spot on the back of the alloy. That makes her Northfield case a useful example of why the complete wheel should be inspected rather than assuming every flat tyre is simply a puncture.
Let Down Elsewhere — Then Back on the Road in Around 1hr 20mins
Kerry called us from Northfield Train Station after another tyre company had been unable to help. Wesley had just finished a job near Longbridge, arrived within around 15 minutes, found the tyre and wheel damage and completed the repair through our Halesowen workshop.
“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.”
