Mobile tyre fitting is affordable, highly convenient, and makes the annoying and stressful taks or fixing a puncture or replacing your tyres remarkably straightforward and hassle free.
Mobile tyre fitters are trained mechanics that travel across a certain area to provide fitting, repair, and replacement services wherever is most convenient for you.
This service is taking over the tyre industry but is it really as good as it sounds?
Pros of mobile tyre fitting
Emergency assistance
Tyre problems rarely occur whilst your car is sitting at home. Blowouts and on-the-go punctures are a nightmare, but when you call a mobile tyre fitter, help will be by your side faster than you think.
Our fitting services are available 24/7 so when you need us we will be there.
Save time
Time is money and mobile tyre fitting can help you save both. If something happens to your tyres, simply arrange a fitter to visit your home, your work, or anywhere on the roadside in Edinburgh at a time that suits you.
Safe driving
Never risk trying to coax your damaged car to the local garage. If you have spotted damage on your tyre this might be tempting but it will only put you and other road users in harms way.
Instead, stay put and wait for the experts to arrive.
Cons of mobile tyre fitting
The rapid rise of mobile tyre fitting services alone tells you that the negatives of using such a service are pretty few and far between. No service is perfect, but saving you time, stress, money, and keeping you safe on the road, a professional mobile fitting service provided by a respected local firm is as close as you’ll get.
That said, although we may be a bit biased here at Mobile Tyres Edinburgh it is only fair to look at both sides of the coin and consider some of the possible downsides to a mobile tyre fitting service.
Lack of Interaction
If you are someone who enjoys the experience of visiting a garage when there is a perfectly good alternative that saves you loads of time and convenience, feel free to take time out of your day to go and visit your local garage.
There really are very few other reasons why you would pick a physical garage over a mobile service for routine or emergency tyre fitting or repair services.
Not all punctures can be repaired
There are strict rules over which punctures can be safely repaired and which mean that the tyre will need to be replaced entirely. Luckily even if the puncture on your tyre is too large or in the wrong location, or mobile tyre fitters carry everything in their vans to fit a new one on location.
Harder to combine services
The only time it is really worth visiting a garage instead of having your tyres replaced on the go is when there is other maintenance work required on your vehicle or you are having your car serviced anyway and it makes sense to combine the two.
