Flat Tire Change in Rochester, NY

A flat tire is one of the most common reasons drivers get stuck, and often one of the simplest to fix at the roadside if a usable spare is on board. Tow Let’s Go can help swap a flat for your spare so you can get to a tire shop on your own.

A roadside tire change depends on the condition of your spare and the wheel itself. If the spare is missing, flat, or the wheel is damaged, a tow to a tire shop may be the better plan, and we will talk that through with you.

Flat Tire Change in Rochester, NY

Good fit for a tire change

  • One tire is flat or losing air and you have a spare in the vehicle.
  • You do not have the tools, or the lug nuts will not budge.
  • You are not comfortable working beside traffic.

What to check before you call

  • Whether you have a spare, and whether it is a full-size wheel or a compact donut.
  • If your wheels use a locking lug nut, where the key is stored.
  • Which tire is flat, and whether the rim or suspension looks bent.
  • Your location and how much space there is beside the flat side.

A note on compact spares

Most compact spares are meant for short distances at reduced speeds. Check the sidewall or your owner’s manual and plan a trip to a tire shop soon after the change. Avoid driving on a completely flat tire, which can damage the wheel.
