Flat Tire? We'll Get You Rolling Again.
A flat tire can happen without warning, leaving you stranded on the side of the road, in a parking lot, or even in your own driveway. Whether you picked up a nail, hit a pothole, or experienced a sudden blowout, Riggs Towing & Recovery is ready to help with fast, dependable tire change service throughout Cedar Rapids, Iowa City, Fairfax, and surrounding Eastern Iowa communities.
Changing a tire on your own isn't always safe or practical. Busy highways, poor weather, uneven ground, or heavy traffic can quickly turn a simple repair into a dangerous situation. Instead of putting yourself at risk, let our experienced roadside assistance team handle the job safely and efficiently.
Our goal is to get you back on the road as quickly as possible while giving you confidence that the work has been completed correctly.

Vehicles that require towing due to tire damage
If replacing the tire isn't the safest option, we'll recommend towing your vehicle to prevent additional damage or unsafe driving conditions.
Safety Comes First
Many drivers attempt to change a tire themselves, but roadside conditions aren't always safe. Heavy traffic, limited visibility, rain, snow, or soft shoulders can make changing a tire hazardous.
When you contact Riggs Towing & Recovery, our operators work to position the vehicle safely, use the proper equipment, and complete the tire change as efficiently as possible.
If you're stranded on a highway or busy roadway, we recommend remaining inside your vehicle when it's safe to do so and waiting for professional assistance rather than attempting a roadside repair yourself.

Sometimes a flat tire isn't the only problem. If we discover another issue that prevents your vehicle from being safely driven, we're equipped to provide additional roadside services or arrange towing to your preferred repair facility.
