Mobile Tire Replacement in San Diego County.

- Works with all passenger cars, SUVs, and light-duty trucks
- Available 24/7 across San Diego County
- Fair, up-front pricing before we start work
What's included
Service overview
Everything you need to know about our tire replacement.
Go Ape brings the tire shop to you. Every truck carries a hydraulic jack, torque wrench calibrated to OEM spec, and a portable mounting rig so we can safely remove a damaged tire and install a new one at your exact location.
We handle every light-duty passenger vehicle — sedans, coupes, SUVs, crossovers, minivans, and 1/2-ton trucks. If you don't have a usable spare, we can source and deliver a matching replacement tire and complete the job in a single visit.
Because there's no tow, no shop wait, and no rideshare back to pick up your car, most customers are back on the road in under an hour from the moment they call.
Common situations
When our customers call for tire replacement.
Highway blowout
Sidewall failure on the I-5, I-8, 15, 805, or 78 — we come to your shoulder or exit ramp.
Flat in a parking lot
Discovered a flat leaving work or a game at Petco Park? We meet you at the space.
Damaged spare or no spare
Modern vehicles often ship without a full-size spare. We deliver and install one.

FAQ
Tire Replacement — questions we hear often.
How long does a mobile tire replacement take?
Most single-tire replacements take 25–45 minutes from technician arrival, depending on wheel size and lug configuration.
Do you carry the tire I need on the truck?
If we know your tire size when you call, we can pick up an exact match from a local distributor and arrive with it in hand — usually same day.
Can you replace a tire on the freeway shoulder?
Yes, but only when it is safe. If your vehicle is in a live lane or hazardous position, we may recommend a short tow to a safer location before servicing.
Do you service low-profile or run-flat tires?
Yes. Our mobile mounting equipment handles standard, low-profile, and run-flat passenger tires.
What if I only need my spare installed?
We offer flat-tire changeovers using your spare at a lower price than a full replacement. Just let dispatch know when you call.
