Flat tire? What to do next

What to do when you get a flat, and how a Shyner can fit your spare or inflate your tires where you are.

Updated October 20, 2026. Prices are live from Shynit.

First, get safe

  • If you are on a road, turn on your hazard lights.
  • If you can, move the car off the road, away from moving traffic. If you cannot, stay well away from passing cars while you wait.
  • If anyone is hurt or in danger, call 911 first.
  • Do not drive far on a flat tire: it can damage the wheel.

If you have a spare

A Shyner can come to you and fit your spare. If a tire is only low rather than flat, they can correct the pressures on all four. Shynit's tire help is fitting your own spare and inflating tires; it does not repair or sell tires.

  1. Open the Shynit app and choose what you need.
  2. Share where you are. You see the price before you confirm.
  3. The nearest available Shyner accepts and comes to you. You can track them on the live map.
  • Spare tire installation: $59.00. Your spare fitted at the roadside.
  • After-hours / emergency: $79.00. A spare fitted outside normal hours.
  • Tire inflation: $29.00. Pressures corrected on all four.

After the spare is on

Many spares are made for short distances at lower speeds: check the label on yours. Have the flat tire repaired or replaced as soon as you can.
