Wiredchaos Neutral Newbie April 29, 2004 Author Share April 29, 2004 no lah, i mean in general raw materials, not those for rim manufacture. as explain above, sg have little natural resources so we import quite a lot as we are a country with sizeable manufacturing activity in the past. begining to sound like some economics class....

Gadgeter 2nd Gear April 29, 2004 Share April 29, 2004 WiredChaos, All I can say is, you should have compare apple to apple and not apple to orange. In short, you should have asked around for more opinion. You should have asked someone without vested interest. I do know of shops which are able to offer better competitive prices. Nonetheless, since you have already brought your rim and tyres, let's not think about whether did you overpaid for it.. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
