What is spare wheel change?

Someone comes to you and swaps the flat for your spare safely.

If you have a flat and would rather not change it yourself, or the wheel nuts are seized, a technician can come and fit your spare wheel. They check the spare's pressure, torque the nuts correctly and can advise on getting the damaged tyre repaired or replaced.

Signs you need it

  • A flat tyre and a usable spare
  • Wheel nuts too tight to undo
  • No tools or jack in the vehicle
  • Unsafe or awkward roadside location

How it works

  1. Make the area safe
  2. Loosen nuts and jack the vehicle
  3. Remove the damaged wheel
  4. Fit the spare and torque nuts
  5. Check spare pressure
  6. Store the damaged wheel

This service is carried out where your vehicle is.

How much does it cost?

The exact price depends on your vehicle and the job. On MYLES, each professional shows a fixed price, a starting price, a range, or sends a quote — so you can compare like for like before you book.

  • Call-out distance
  • Time of day
  • Locking wheel nut removal if the key is missing

Tips

  • Space-saver spares have speed limits, often 80 km/h: check the sticker
  • Get the damaged tyre repaired or replaced soon

Why it matters

Gets you moving safely without risking an injury at the roadside.

How far can I drive on a space-saver spare?

Space-saver spares have speed and distance limits printed on them. Use them only to get to a repair.

What if my spare is flat too?

Mention it in your request — the provider can bring the right equipment or suggest the next best option.

Do I need to be there?

It helps to be with the vehicle so the professional can access it and the locking wheel nut if you have one.

Yes. Mobile professionals can do spare wheel change at your home, work or depot. Choose "At my place" when you request quotes.
