Emergency mobile tyre fitting in Portsmouth

Emergency Tyre is a mobile tyre fitting and emergency tyre replacement service. We do not ask you to drive anywhere on a damaged tyre — a technician travels to your vehicle with the replacement tyre and the equipment needed to fit and balance it there and then.

• Roadside tyre fitting across Portsmouth and the surrounding motorway network (M275, M27, A3(M), A27, Eastern Road, Portsmouth International Port approach)
• Tyre fitting at home — on your driveway or outside your address
• Tyre fitting at work, in office and business car parks
• Emergency tyre replacement after a puncture, blowout or sidewall damage
• Puncture repairs where the damage can be safely repaired
• Locking wheel nut removal and disposal of your old tyre

Because Portsmouth is built on an island, the M275, the Eastern Road and the A3 carry almost everything in and out. A tyre failure on one of those approaches is disruptive quickly, so we prioritise getting a fitter to the vehicle rather than asking you to move it.

Dense terraced parking across Southsea, Fratton and North End means kerb damage and slow punctures are everyday call-outs, often discovered before a morning commute. We fit at the kerbside outside your address without needing the car moved.

Ferry and port traffic adds its own pattern — drivers heading for the International Port or the Gosport ferry with a damaged tyre and a departure time. We work around it, 24 hours a day.

• Tyre failures on the M275 and Eastern Road approaches to the island
• Kerb damage from tight terraced-street parking in Southsea and Fratton
• Punctures found before the morning commute on the A27 corridor
• Drivers with a ferry or port departure who cannot wait for a garage slot

Tyres do not fail at convenient times. Emergency Tyre takes call-outs in Portsmouth through the night, at weekends and on bank holidays, so a puncture at 2am is handled the same way as one at 2pm. Response times vary with distance, traffic and tyre availability, and can be from 30 minutes — we tell you the realistic estimate on the phone rather than promising a fixed time.

If your vehicle is in a dangerous position on the M275 or another fast road, stay behind a barrier where possible and call us so we can plan a safe roadside approach.

1. 1. Tell us where you are

   Call 0161 393 9418 or send a request through the form on this page with your location in Portsmouth, your vehicle and what has happened to the tyre.

2. 2. Tyre size identification

   Your tyre size is printed on the sidewall of the tyre, in a format such as 205/55 R16 91V. Read it to us, or send a photo of the sidewall, and we will match the correct replacement. If you cannot reach the tyre safely, we can identify the size from your registration and vehicle details instead.

3. 3. A fitter is assigned

   We confirm availability and give you a price and an estimated arrival time before anything is booked. Online requests receive an on-screen reference number immediately, followed by a call back to confirm the details.

4. 4. The tyre is fitted at your location

   The technician removes the damaged tyre, fits and balances the replacement, checks the pressure and takes the old tyre away. Payment is taken once the work is complete.
