A blown tire is the most common thing that stops a truck, and the one most often fixed on the shoulder. We bring the tire to you rather than the truck to a shop.

How it runs

From your call to the truck moving

  1. Tell us the position and the size

    Which axle, inside or outside dual, and the size off the sidewall if you can read it safely. That decides what comes on the truck.

  2. We bring the tire to you

    Roadside, dock, yard or scale. Say if you are in a live lane — that changes the priority, not the price.

  3. Fitted and checked

    Torqued properly and the wheel end looked over, because a blowout rarely damages only the tire.

Can a semi truck tire be repaired, or does it need replacing?

A repairable puncture gets repaired; a damaged casing gets replaced.

Do you repair semi trailer and tractor trailer tires?

Yes. A semi trailer tire gets the same road call as a tractor's: dry vans, reefers and flatbeds, loaded or empty, at a dock, in a yard, at a scale or on the shoulder. On a tractor-trailer, tell us whether the tire is on the tractor or the trailer, which axle, and whether it is the inside or outside dual, and read the size off the sidewall if you can do it safely. That decides which tire comes on the service truck.

A trailer blowout rarely takes only the tire. The wheel end is looked over once the new tire is on, and if the failure took out air lines, wiring or lights, mobile trailer repair is the same phone call. What to do after a truck tire blowout covers the first minutes on the shoulder, and how long a roadside truck tire replacement takes covers the wait.

When does a worn or damaged tire put a truck out of service?

The federal tire rule for commercial vehicles, 49 CFR 393.75, sets the limits. A tire on the front, steering axle of a truck or truck tractor needs at least 4/32 of an inch of tread groove depth, measured in a major tread groove, and every other tire on the truck and trailer needs at least 2/32 of an inch. Irregular wear reaches those limits in one spot long before the tread averages out to them.

The same rule bars driving on a tire that is flat or has an audible leak, that shows ply or belt material through the tread or sidewall, or that has any tread or sidewall separation, and on a tire run below the cold inflation pressure specified for the load it carries. A blown tire usually breaks several of those at once, which is why the answer to limping it to the next exit is usually no: get onto the shoulder, put the triangles out and call for the tire.

Mobile trailer repair

Most trailer faults do not stop a trailer moving. They stop it being legal to move, which is worse — the load sits while the paperwork says it cannot go anywhere.

Heavy-duty towing

A loaded tractor-trailer is not a bigger car. It needs a rated wrecker, a rated operator and a plan before anything gets hooked. That is what we send.

Mobile tire service questions

Do you carry tires on the truck, or do you have to fetch one?

We carry tires. The reason we ask for the size and position on the phone is so the right one is on the truck when it leaves rather than after a second trip — the common sizes cover most calls, and an unusual size is worth knowing about before we set off instead of when we arrive. Read the sidewall if you can do it safely from the right side of the vehicle, and tell us which axle and whether it is an inside or outside dual. That one detail is the difference between a single road call and two.

Can a truck tire be repaired instead of replaced?

Sometimes, and we will tell you honestly which one you have. A clean puncture in the tread area of a sound casing is often repairable. What is not repairable is a sidewall injury, a casing that has been run flat and heat-damaged, or a blowout that has already shredded — and a repair on any of those is a failure waiting for the next load. Steer positions get the most conservative call of all, because a steer failure at speed is the one that does not end with a phone call.

How much does semi truck tire repair cost at the roadside?

Titan Tow & Repair prices a roadside truck tire call like the rest of its mobile repair work: per job, quoted when you call and describe it, not from a flat price list. To get an accurate quote, tell us the tire's size off the sidewall, its position (steer, drive or trailer, inside or outside dual) and any wheel-end damage the failure left, such as studs, nuts and hardware. A clean puncture in the tread of a sound casing is often repairable; a sidewall injury or a casing that has been run flat is replaced. With those details the right tire comes on the first trip.

Do you offer 24-hour roadside assistance for a semi or big truck flat tire?

Yes. Titan Tow & Repair runs roadside tire service for semis, box trucks and other commercial trucks 24 hours a day, including nights, weekends and holidays, with the tires carried on the service truck. Get the truck as far onto the shoulder as it will safely go, then call (816) 888-8732 with the tire size off the sidewall, its position (steer, drive or trailer, inside or outside dual) and where you are. For a car or pickup with a flat, the same number gets a tire change.

How fast can you get a tire to a truck on the interstate?

Usually within about 60 minutes for most of the metro, with a real ETA for your exact location on the phone rather than an optimistic one. What speeds it up is knowing the position and size before we roll. What slows it down is a live-lane situation needing traffic management first — tell us where you are sitting relative to the white line, because on a shoulder call that decides how we approach as much as how fast.

How do I pay for a roadside semi tire replacement?

Cash or the major cards on the day, or fleet account billing with an invoice the office can file. You hear the price on the phone once you give us the position, the size and the load range, before the service truck leaves.
