Truck tyre fitting can be a problem for the driver if there is an accident on the road, because German traffic law prohibits long stops on the side of the road. It is not always possible to quickly replace a damaged wheel yourself, so it is better to use truck tyre roadside assistance from MT onroad.

Balancing and mobile truck tyre service

A truck is a vehicle for special tasks, so its wheels are subjected to heavy loads. Such loads affect the condition of the wheel's tread or rim. This type of damage is not always immediately apparent, but if you have steering vibrations, jerky braking or increased play in the suspension, you should urgently seek professional wheel balancing. We will help you quickly find a truck tyre service near me, so that specialists can perform all the necessary work. Professional wheel balancing is done with automatic equipment that allows you to quickly and accurately identify the problem so that it can be fixed by experts.

In addition to tyre fitting truck and balancing in our partner service stations, you can also use the service of tire retreading (recovery).

There are two types of recovery:

  1. Cold recovery truck tyre replacement. In this process, a pre-vulcanized tread with the final tread pattern is applied to the front of the tire. Then the tire goes into the pressure chamber (autoclave) for about 3 hours, where the vulcanization process takes place at a temperature of about 115°C.
  2. Hot recovery. During this process, a raw rubber compound is applied to the front and sides of the tire. The tire then goes into a special vulcanization mold where the final shape of the retreaded tire is produced. This process takes about 1 hour in a special hydraulic press that is heated to over 160 °C (same as with new tires).

Whether a tire is suitable for retreading depends on its condition and age. Damage, multiple punctures, abrasions and cuts on the front that affect the steel cord plies, or structural deformations caused by driving with underinflated tires make them unsuitable for retreading.

More than 600 Mobile Tire services in Germany are ready to change or replace your truck damaged tires roadside or at brakedown location.

According to statistics, wheel failure is one of the most common truck failures on German roads.  Over 65% of truck breakdowns are tire breakdowns. Tire mishaps can happen on the road, highway, site, etc. without warning. It is very dangerous to continue driving even without one wheel, not to mention the situation when several wheels have been damaged. There are a lot of reasons for this. Rarely is the driver able to repair damage himself, and a prior inspection before driving does not guarantee protection against an emergency. Thanks to the truck wheels and tires fitting, you can change the tires of all large-sized means of transport, including trucks, busses and special vehicles. The main requirement is the availability of specific equipment and tools capable of withstanding higher loads and handling the more massive and thicker wheels of multi-tonne vehicles.

The renewed tires or welded tires are used tires that have been approved for reuse after repair.

  • Most truck tires can be repaired If the tire carcass has no damages.
  • Before final recycling, tires are usually repaired once or twice.However, this does not mean that renewed tires are worse than new ones.
  • At a certain tread depth in tires, you can cut off the tread (make it deeper). After that, the tire must be marked as "regroovable". If the height of the tire tread is sufficient, you can make the tread 2 times deeper.

Question/Answer

If you have noticed that a tyre has burst on the truck or semi-trailer, drive immediately onto the hard shoulder or, if possible, into a parking space. Switch off the engine, put the vehicle in gear and apply the handbrake. Determine if it is safe enough to get out. Then place a warning triangle 400 metres behind you on the hard shoulder and check the tyre(s), which may be damaged or even burst. Call this hotline and have the following data ready:

  • Your exact GPS coordinates,
  • Registration number of the truck and trailer,
  • Tyre puncture on the front axle, rear axle or semi-trailer axle
  • Right side or left side
  • Tyre size and brand

This means you can be helped very quickly.

If you have a flat tyre while driving on the highway, and you have a spare wheel there and can change it yourself, then the following should be taken into attention. If you are in the car park changing your tyre, you have little risk of being injured by other moving cars. But if you are on the hard shoulder, you must be extremely careful! If the damage to the tyre happened on the right-hand side and you have the opportunity to change the tyre yourself, you are welcome to do so.

If the damage occurred on the left-hand side, we would strongly recommend that you do not change the tyre yourself, as an accident can happen very quickly.

Call MT onroad, they will be able to help you. Only trained personnel with qualified education of the tyre services are allowed to change the tyres on the highrway.
