Mobile Tyre Fitting Kirkcaldy: at home, work or roadside

The Tyre Soldier covers Kirkcaldy 24 hours a day and comes to you, at home, at your workplace or the roadside, so there is no garage visit. Call or WhatsApp 07449 206 581 with your registration and location and Matt will confirm the tyre size and an all-in price before we set off.

We aim to be with you within 90 minutes where the route allows. Call first and we'll give you an honest ETA for Kirkcaldy, not a hopeful one.

Once the van is with you, a single tyre takes about 20 to 30 minutes and a full set of four is usually 45 to 60 minutes. That covers jacking the car, stripping the old tyre off the rim, mounting and balancing the new one, torquing the wheel properly and setting the pressures.

Matt quotes one all-in figure before any work starts, covering the tyre, fitting, balancing, a new valve and disposal of the old tyre. The price depends on tyre size, the brand and budget you choose, the time of day, and whether the tyre can be safely repaired rather than replaced. You hear the price before we touch the car and nothing gets added on arrival.

Usually not. The tyre itself is the biggest part of any tyre bill and it comes from the same trade suppliers at the same price whoever fits it. A mobile fitter carries no showroom, forecourt or waiting room, which offsets the cost of coming to you, and you also save the fuel, the time off work and the second trip to collect the car.

We assess the tyre at the vehicle and repair it on the spot when the damage is safely repairable, which means minor damage in the central tread area of a tyre that has not been driven on while flat. Sidewall damage, run-flats that have been driven deflated and tyres driven home on a flat cannot legally be repaired, and in those cases we source and fit the replacement on the same visit.

A mobile fitter uses the same trade suppliers, the same fitting equipment and the same wheel balancer as a garage, so the work is identical; only the location changes. Our van carries professional balancing equipment, wheel nuts are torqued to the manufacturer figure rather than rattled up with a gun, and The Tyre Soldier Ltd carries Public and Products Liability insurance.

Yes. Not a call centre that patches you through to someone three counties away. It's Matt's phone. He answers it at 2am on a Wednesday and at 7am on a Sunday.

Any make and size, fitted the same visit. We source same-day through local trade suppliers and fit at your location, value to premium, every budget covered. We fit new tyres only and never part-worns.
