Plug + patchSpare swap
When to call this in
Signs this is the right service.
- A nail or screw has left you with a slow or total flat
- The car has no spare and no jack you trust
- A tire is holding air but you can hear it leaking
- A wheel is damaged enough that it needs a swap, not a plug
How it works
What happens after you call.
- 01
Find the damage
We locate the puncture, check the sidewall and bead, and tell you whether a repair is safe or whether the tire is done.
- 02
Lift it correctly
EVs are heavy and jack points are specific. We use the manufacturer jack points with pads rated for the vehicle weight.
- 03
Repair or swap
A plug-patch from the inside where the damage allows, or your spare if you have one, torqued to spec.
- 04
Set the pressures
We set all four to the door-jamb spec and reset the TPMS light where the car allows it.
What is included
- Puncture assessment and a safe range of repair options
- Plug-patch repair where the damage location allows it
- Spare fitting and torque to manufacturer spec
- Four-corner pressure check and TPMS reset where supported
What is not
- Replacement tires (we can quote and source, but do not stock sizes)
- Sidewall damage repairs, which are never safe
- Wheel straightening or alignment
Questions about flat tire repair
Straight answers.
Can you repair a run-flat?
Sometimes, if it has not been driven flat. Once the sidewall has been loaded with no pressure, the tire is scrap and we will tell you straight.
My EV has no spare. Now what?
Most EVs ship with a sealant kit or nothing at all. We carry plugs and patches, and if the tire cannot be saved we can arrange a tow to a tire shop as a separate service.
Do you carry my size?
We do not stock tires, so we do not promise a replacement on the spot. We repair, we swap to your spare, or we tow.
How long does a plug-patch last?
A proper internal plug-patch on a repairable puncture is a permanent repair for the life of the tire. A quick external plug is a get-you-home measure.
Will you work on a highway shoulder?
Only if the position is safe. Otherwise we move you to the next exit or a lot first, because a person changing a tire on a live shoulder is the real hazard.
