How Much Does a Flat Tire Change Cost?
A standard spare swap is a flat $60 when you have a usable spare on hand. If you don't have a spare, or it's also flat, the job shifts into a tow to the nearest tire shop instead, priced separately based on distance. We'll always confirm which situation you're in before starting, so there are no surprises.
