Do note that a tire plug is only a temporary fix. A tire needs to be both plugged and patched in order to be considered as repaired.

That is ideal/in theory. Do not worry. All tire with my previous cars had similar repairs lasted the entire service life of the respective tire with the rubber plugs only.

Try Motogard at Tampines Industrial Park behind Tampines SAFRA. There is also a Stamford Tyres there.

My dad is an AA member, so one of the benefits is getting the AA service mechanics to help with punctured tyres, flat batteries 24/7 at no extra cost.

They are usually fast & good, so I would give them a small angpow for their effort & good attitude.

 

I realise my car had a puncture but I managed to drive home before it went flat. I found out that it was a screw, supported by a large washer, otherwise the screw would never have got embedded in the tyre.

 

It was my mistake to park opposite the house of a unbalanced woman (like in the Everitt Rd case) whom I suspect caused the puncture.

Relax. Dont panic.

Now only no more spare tyre, still can drive around, so not "emergency situation".

just as long as the shop has stacks of tyres displayed (and shutters open) you can give it a shot.

 

don't worry, it's ok to have a nail in a flat tyre...
