Flat Tire Changes in Boise & Nampa, Idaho

If you experience a flat tire while driving, remain calm and gradually reduce your speed. Avoid braking suddenly, and pull over to a safe location, such as a parking lot or the shoulder of the road. Turn on your hazard lights to alert other drivers. If you don’t feel comfortable changing the tire yourself or are in a high-traffic area, call Diamond S Towing & Recovery for professional roadside assistance.

Our response time depends on your location, traffic conditions, and current service demand. Typically, we can arrive within 30–60 minutes in Boise or Nampa. Once on-site, our trained professionals can change your tire in about 15–30 minutes, ensuring you’re back on the road safely as soon as possible.

Yes, but safety is our top priority. If your flat tire occurs on a busy road or highway, we’ll take necessary precautions, such as using warning lights, cones, and reflective gear to protect both you and our technician. If needed, we may recommend moving your vehicle to a safer location before performing the tire change.

If you don’t have a spare tire, we can assist in multiple ways. We may be able to provide a temporary tire or help tow your vehicle to a nearby repair shop or tire retailer. Some vehicles come with tire inflation kits or run-flat tires, which may provide a short-term solution. We’ll assess your options and find the best way to get you moving again.

Yes, we provide flat tire changes for most vehicles, including sedans, SUVs, pickup trucks, and some light commercial vehicles. If your vehicle requires a specific type of jack or has unique lifting points, our team is trained to handle it properly. If your vehicle is too large for roadside service, we may recommend towing it to a service station.

Yes! If you’re driving a rental car and experience a flat, we can assist you just as we would with a personal vehicle. However, we recommend checking with your rental company first, as some provide roadside assistance through their own services. If they don’t, Diamond S Towing & Recovery is here to help.

It depends on your coverage. Many auto insurance policies and roadside assistance memberships include flat tire changes as part of their service. If you’re unsure, check your policy details or contact your provider. Even if you’re not covered, we offer affordable flat tire change services with transparent pricing.

If you’re unsure why your tire is flat, avoid driving on it, as this can cause rim damage. Instead, inspect the tire for visible punctures, cuts, or bulges. If you can’t determine the cause, our technicians will assess the tire upon arrival and recommend whether it can be patched or if a full replacement is necessary.

Most spare tires (especially “donut” spares) are designed for short-term use only and should not be driven more than 50–70 miles at speeds under 50 mph. Full-size spare tires can last longer but should still be replaced with a regular tire as soon as possible. If we install your spare, we’ll advise you on how long it’s safe to use before getting a replacement.

Yes, if your tire still holds some air and has a minor leak, we may be able to reinflate it temporarily. However, this is only a short-term solution. We recommend getting the tire inspected and repaired as soon as possible to avoid another flat. If reinflation isn’t safe, we’ll assist with a proper tire change.
