Just use your regular tyre shop lah and invest in a tyre pressure monitor system to avoid getting stranded.

Surprised to see this thread.

I did a patch this week as well.

Went to Simpang bedok.

The first shop quoted me 20 bucks for an internal patch. I said I'm happy to do an external patch job (I'm going to change tyres this weekend anyway! Coincidence)

The second shop carroted me. Say 18 dollars for an external patch. Then 15. Then finally 10. Please be aware. Shop facing shell.

I seconded.

I had a punctured tyre years ago, managed to crawl there(the corner shop) since I was around that area. They offered $140 for 14" Westlake tyre!!
I paid $10 them to change to my spare then zoomed off.. Their knife is really sharp.

there are two shops there … both are "facing" Shell. one is beside the towhuay shop and the other is beside a coffee shop.

 

apparently both appear to be butchers … but that was a far cry from the time I willingly paid $16 about 1.5 years ago at the same shop beside the towhuay shop.

 

personally, I don't subscribe to different car different price coz all wheels are fixed the same right ?? only difference is the shopkeeper's perception of his prey - like what Friendstar mentioned.

 

anyway, now we know.

 

so next time will pop into the shell station tire shop instead as rec by Othello.

Yes I agree. That's the only tyre shop I patronize as it's near my house. Patching work is as fast as a toilet & smoke break.

Great variety of rims and their tyres are quite fresh. But their prices might not be the best deal, $5-$10 more per tyre which I don't really mind.
