Motorway mobile tyre change runs from £250 to £750 depending on the tyre and vehicle, with the exact price agreed before we set off. Call 07960 200253 for a mobile tyre fitter near you on the M23.
The M23 is the road to Gatwick, and a flat tyre on it usually means a flight at risk, on a stretch that runs all lanes with no hard shoulder past the airport. Our tyre vans cover the M23 and the M25 interchange, so we can reach your junction, change the wheel or fit a replacement, and get you to the terminal.
M23 mobile tyre FAQs
Do you cover the M23 at Gatwick Airport?
Yes. We cover the M23 from Junction 7 at the M25 to Junction 11 at Pease Pottage, including Junctions 9 and 9a for Gatwick Airport. If you have a flight, tell us when you call and we will give you a realistic arrival time.
Does the M23 have a hard shoulder near Gatwick?
Between Junctions 8 and 10, the stretch past Gatwick, the M23 runs as smart motorway with all lanes open and no permanent hard shoulder. Your only refuge is an emergency refuge area, so head for one or the next exit if your tyre will bear it.
I have a flat near Gatwick on the M23, can you still reach me?
Yes. The M23 past Gatwick between Junctions 8 and 10 is all-lane running with no hard shoulder, so head for an emergency refuge area or the next exit. We cover the M23 and the M25 interchange, so we reach the Gatwick stretch quickly, and Pease Pottage services is the natural place to finish if needed.
How much is a mobile tyre change on the M23?
Motorway mobile tyre change runs from £250 to £750. It costs more than an ordinary roadside tyre change (from £90) because it is done on a live, high-speed carriageway with the correct warning equipment and safety procedures. A common tyre on a standard car sits at the lower end; a large, low-profile, run-flat or 4×4 tyre supplied at night sits at the upper end. We agree the exact figure on the phone before we set off.
Can you fit a tyre if I have no spare near J7 M25 Hooley on the M23?
Yes. Most new cars carry no spare, only a sealant kit, which cannot fix a sidewall cut or a blowout. We can supply and fit a matching tyre at the roadside near J7 M25 Hooley where it is safe to do so, or recover you towards J9a Gatwick South if it is not.
Should I change the tyre myself between J7 M25 Hooley and J11 Pease Pottage on the M23?
No. Changing a wheel anywhere on the M23, whether that is up by J7 M25 Hooley or down towards J11 Pease Pottage, is one of the most dangerous things you can do on a motorway. Get everyone out of the left-hand doors and behind the safety barrier, and call us. If you are stuck in a live lane and cannot get out safely, stay belted in with your hazards on and call 999.
How do I tell you exactly where I am on the M23?
Give us 'M23', the last junction you passed (for example J9a Gatwick South), your direction of travel, and the number on the nearest blue marker post or the driver location sign on the verge. That pins your position to within about 100 metres so we reach you quickly.
Can you change tyres on vans and 4x4s on the M23?
Yes. We change tyres on cars, vans, 4x4s and light commercials anywhere along the M23, and carry the equipment for larger wheels, locking nuts and wheels seized to the hub.
My car has run-flat tyres, do I still need you on the M23?
Run-flats let you keep going a limited distance at reduced speed, typically around 50 miles at up to 50mph, but that is a get-you-off-the-M23 measure, not a repair, and many run-flats cannot be repaired at all once run flat. Leave at the next exit if you safely can, then call us to supply and fit a replacement or recover you.
My tyre pressure warning light has come on near J8 Merstham, can I carry on?
Treat it as a warning that something is wrong. A slow puncture can become a blowout at M23 speeds. Ease off, leave at the next exit if you can do so safely and check the tyre. If it is going down, do not carry on, get somewhere safe and call us.
What is the legal tyre tread depth for driving the M23?
The legal minimum is 1.6mm across the central three-quarters of the tread and around the whole circumference, the same limit anywhere in the UK. Below that you risk a fine and penalty points for each illegal tyre, and grip and wet braking fall away long before you reach the limit. Any tyre we supply and fit is legal and correctly matched to your vehicle.
