i have been patronising Kim Hoe@Ubi Rd 1...Recommended all my stream kakis and so far all are happy customers. Look for Alex, a nice young chap...He's able to also help source for freshly baked tires. Good service and very reasonable price...

Kim hoe is my regular for tyres, rims, batt n where i changed a/c compressor.

I wont say its the cheapest, but reasonable pricing. But the service is better than those major shops.

Good to know/hear you bros are regulars of Kim Hoe :-)

I had changed 2 sets of tyres and 2 batteries from him..Recently did the a/c flush and must confess is good stuff..

I would say that Alex's price is reasonable cos the tires he offered me were fairly new ones. One thing that other tires shops failed to impress upon me is that they don't advise me the YOM of the tires. They merely quoted you the price and ask you come down install..Cheap but no indication if there are new or fairly old ones...

Alex went that extra mile to check and let me know the YOM and price..I don't mind pay $5-10 for a 2-3mths old tires compared to a 1yr old+ tires..

I have been buying my rubbers from South East Tyres at Kaki Bukit for 8 years. Liked their service and their standards.

They will thoroughly washed your rims inside out before working on it. After balancing or changing tyres, they will shine your rubbers before putting back.

Also when repairing a puncture, they will also take out tyre and repair from the inside.

Last but not least, they will tighten your rims using hand wrench AND NOT the air tool
