Charlotte Towing, in addition to towing services, can provide roadside assistance for flat tire repairs or changes. If you are having trouble removing a flat tire because the bolts are too tight, we can use our equipment to nudge free sticky or tight bolts. Often, tire lugs are tightened professionally by a mechanic’s torque wrench, so removing them with a hand wrench can be difficult.

Our technicians can remove your damaged tire and install your manufacturer’s provided spare tire. If the flat tire is due to a nail or screw in the tread we can typically use a tire plug seal the hole to avoid having to use your spare tire. After installing a tire plug we recommend visiting a reputable tire shop to have the repair inspected because it’s usually a good idea to have the tire replaced with a new one. 

If you have experienced a blowout, the tire cannot be fixed and installing the spare will be necessary. If you need us to bring a tire please let our dispatcher know and we can try and source a tire for you. 

Some of our customers encounter a flat tire and discover that their tire wrench or carjack is missing. We can also be dispatched to help if you are missing the necessary equipment for a tire change.
