Flat Tire? Stay Safe First.
If you prefer not to change the tire yourself, call us and we’ll handle it safely. If you do attempt it, keep these best-practice tips in mind:
- Move to a level, solid surface away from traffic and turn on hazards.
- Set the parking brake; place the vehicle in Park (or in gear for manual).
- Gather the spare, jack, and tools; loosen lug nuts slightly before jacking.
- Jack at the proper lift point, swap the wheel, hand-tighten, lower, then torque.
- Stow the flat and head to Vestavia Tire Express for repair or replacement.

- Stripped or over-torqued lug nuts need proper tools
- We verify spare pressure and recommended PSI
- Quick access to safe, affordable used tires at our shop
- Faster, safer process in high-traffic or low-visibility areas
