M4 Motorway Tyre Trouble
Based in Devizes, Wiltshire, the G & H Tyre mobile tyre fitting service team are within easy reach of the M4 – the mighty motorway which connects London to South Wales, cutting right through the lower west part of England.
The M4 is extremely busy both night and day, passing through some major towns and cities as you travel west through Slough, Reading, Swindon, Bristol, Newport, Cardiff, Bridgend, and Port Talbot, ending in Swansea. It covers a total distance of 189 miles, with 50 junctions on the way.
It’s good to know that if you run into tyre trouble on the M4 or any of the towns and villages along the route we’re available to help you, 24 hours, 6 days a week. If you’re embarking on a journey on the M4 or use it as a commuter corridor keep our number handy – 07739 634 929. This is the magic number that will have our tyre experts rush to your rescue.
We supply a wide range of tyres and fit any tyre size, for all types of vehicles, from cars and vans to HGVs and caravans, from our mobile tyre workshop which is fully equipped with all we need to replace your damaged or punctured tyre and get yet you back on the road again. Also, we can change your tyres with or without your locking wheel nut.
Flat Tyre on the M4
Having a tyre blow-out or sudden puncture on the M4 is obviously a very dangerous situation. The first indication you may get that you have a flat tyre while driving on the M4 is a loud noise followed by vibration through the steering wheel.
It’s natural to panic, but you have to try and stay calm and in control of the vehicle as you lower the speed, turn on the hazard lights and indicate to the left to bring the car to a stop on the hard shoulder.
If you are near a services area or exit slip road and the puncture is not too severe you should try to leave the motorway and drive slowly with hazards lights on to find a safer place to stop.
If you are forced to stop on the M4 hard shoulder with a flat tyre, get everyone out of the car and follow the rules of the Highway Code as far as keeping safe and contacting the authorities is concerned. Under no circumstances should you try to change a tyre yourself while on the M4, even on the hard shoulder, that’s if you have a spare tyre, which most newer vehicles do not.
You can contact us too no matter what the time is and our mobile fitters will be able to make sure your damaged tyre is replaced with a new one.
We are an independent mobile tyre fitting service on the M4, which means we have no affiliation with any particular tyre brand. We stock a range of all the popular brands, including Michelin, Bridgestone, Dunlop and Continental, as well as budget brands in different sizes and specifications. We are always able to find the right tyre for your vehicle when you need a replacement tyre on the M4.
The best way to avoid having to experience the trauma of a puncture on the M4 or any other busy roadway is to make sure you keep a good eye on your tyres. Don’t wait until they fail the MOT before having them checked.
It’s a good idea to have us check your tyres for wear, damage, and correct pressure before you set out on a long journey.
There’s no need to go out of your way to get new tyres, we pop round to yours and fit new tyres at your home on your car, van, trailer or caravan. G & H Tyre Services will fit tyres on your driveway, whether you’re at work or at home.
