Flat Tire Change near Hutto

What flattens tires around Hutto

Construction never stops here, and dump trucks, concrete mixers and framing crews shed nails, screws and rock. US-79 and the roads leading into new subdivisions collect most of it. Out on the county roads, narrow pavement edges can chew sidewalls when you drift too close.

After a hard rain, mud and gravel wash onto the pavement near building sites, and small pieces of metal hide in it.

Working safely where there's no shoulder

Many Hutto roads have a ditch where a shoulder would be. If you can reach a driveway, a school lot or a gas station, limp there slowly before calling, even if it ruins the rim. The tire is replaceable, but standing in a traffic lane isn't an option.

Keep passengers away from the road side. Tell dispatch whether you have locking wheel nuts and where the key is.

If the spare isn't an option

A missing spare or a split wheel means a tow to a tire dealer. We'll help you plan it, but we don't repair punctures at the roadside.
