Tyre Shop

We often go to tyre shops for 3 things

  1. Balancing and Wheel Alignment
  2. Tyre related issues (Tyre replacement, Puncture, Nitrogen Gas)
  3. Battery Replacement/Charge
  4. Maintenance Related (Major and Minor)
In the old days, tyre shops could survive by just providing tyre and battery services. Hence most shops will have its name as Kedai so and so Tyre and Battery. Nowadays its not unfamiliar that they start to provide maintenance related services to make ends meet.
Below are some of the shops I frequent. They charge the standard price for balancing and alignment. For those shopping for tyres, ask around, prices differ from shop to shop.
