CityGrip provides 24/7 mobile tyre change on the M5, covering J1 to J31 including the hard shoulder and the emergency refuge areas on the smart-motorway sections. We fit your spare, supply and fit a replacement tyre if you have no spare, deal with locking wheel nuts and seized wheels, or recover the vehicle if the tyre cannot be changed safely on a live carriageway. 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 M5.
The M5 is the road to the West Country, carrying freight, Bristol commuters and, every summer, the entire South West holiday migration. A blowout on the all-lane-running sections near Bristol, or in slow-moving holiday traffic, leaves you badly exposed. Our national network puts a tyre van on the way to your junction with the equipment to change the wheel or fit a replacement.
M5 mobile tyre FAQs
Do you cover the M5 to the South West?
Yes. Through our national operator network we cover the M5 from Junction 1 near West Bromwich to Junction 31 at Exeter, including the Almondsbury Interchange with the M4 at Junction 15 and the Avonmouth Bridge.
Is the M5 busier in summer?
Yes. The M5 is the main holiday route to Devon and Cornwall, so summer weekends bring very heavy traffic, particularly around Bristol and south of Taunton. A flat tyre in that traffic is exposed, so get behind the barrier and call us with your junction and marker post.
Is the M5 worse for tyres in summer?
Yes. The M5 is the main holiday route to Devon and Cornwall, so summer weekends bring heavy, stop-start traffic south of Taunton, often on cars loaded to the roof, which is hard on tyres. In that traffic get behind the barrier and call us with your junction and marker post.
How much is a mobile tyre change on the M5?
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 J1 West Bromwich on the M5?
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 J1 West Bromwich where it is safe to do so, or recover you towards J11a Gloucester if it is not.
Should I change the tyre myself between J1 West Bromwich and J31 Exeter on the M5?
No. Changing a wheel anywhere on the M5, whether that is up by J1 West Bromwich or down towards J31 Exeter, 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 M5?
Give us 'M5', the last junction you passed (for example J19 Gordano), 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 M5?
Yes. We change tyres on cars, vans, 4x4s and light commercials anywhere along the M5, 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 M5?
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-M5 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 J4a M42, can I carry on?
Treat it as a warning that something is wrong. A slow puncture can become a blowout at M5 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 M5?
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.
