Flat Tire? We'll Be There Fast

Roadside flat tire service typically costs 300-600 THB for standard vehicles, depending on your location and time of day. This includes coming to your location, safely jacking your vehicle, removing the flat tire, mounting your spare, and securing lug nuts to proper torque. If you need a new tire, we can transport you to a nearby tire shop or bring one to you at additional cost.

Many modern vehicles, especially EVs and sports cars, come without spare tires to save weight and space. If you don't have a spare, TowGrab can: 1) Bring a temporary spare tire if your vehicle supports it, 2) Transport you to the nearest tire shop via flatbed, or 3) Arrange for a mobile tire shop to come to your location. We'll assess your situation and provide the best solution.

Yes, for simple punctures in the tread area (nail holes, screw punctures), our technicians can perform a professional plug repair on-site. This permanent repair costs around 200-400 THB and gets you back on the road quickly. However, sidewall damage, large gashes, or severely worn tires require replacement—we'll advise honestly if repair isn't safe.

From the moment our technician arrives, a standard tire change takes 15-20 minutes. This includes safely positioning the jack, removing the flat tire, mounting the spare, and torquing lug nuts properly. We take extra care to ensure your vehicle is safely supported—rushing a tire change can be dangerous.

Absolutely. TowGrab technicians are equipped to handle all vehicle types including SUVs (Fortuner, Pajero, CR-V), pickup trucks (Hilux, Ranger, D-Max), vans, and large sedans. We carry heavy-duty jacks and equipment rated for these heavier vehicles. There may be a small additional charge for oversized tires that require extra equipment.

Safety first: 1) Move your vehicle off the road if possible—even onto a sidewalk is better than traffic lanes. 2) Turn on hazard lights. 3) Place a warning triangle 50-100 meters behind your vehicle if you have one. 4) Stay in a safe location, preferably inside your vehicle with seatbelt on if you're on a highway. 5) Share your GPS location when you call us for faster response.

We strongly advise against driving on a flat tire. Even short distances can cause: 1) Irreparable damage to the wheel rim, 2) Damage to the tire beyond repair, 3) Damage to brakes and suspension, 4) Loss of vehicle control. The cost of a new rim (5,000-20,000 THB) far exceeds our service fee. Call TowGrab and wait safely.

Yes, as part of our service, we'll check the pressure on all four tires (plus your spare if applicable). Low tire pressure is a common cause of flats and poor fuel economy. We'll inflate any underinflated tires to the manufacturer's recommended PSI, which you can find on the sticker inside your driver's door jamb.
