Hi,

I managed to perform my civic duty by cleaning a few roads in Phuket of a number of nails and other assorted hardware, but I realized using my rear tire for the task might have not been very brilliant.

I had it plugged, but I was wondering if anyone could direct me to a reputable dealership in Phuket Town or surrounding areas where to get a new tire, possibly a Metzeler Roadtec z6, possibly at a reasonable price.

Thank you in advance for your help,

Medeis

Ok, wheelbarrows vendors? Round wooden cutting boards hawkers? Just need something to put there.

Thank you.

Hi LivinLOS,

Thank you for your reply.

Then you just took them to any tire place to have them installed?

Well, got to keep up the standards of Thai workmanship.

Thank you again.

For those interested: I purchased the tire mentioned in the subject line online, at paddock BKK, for 7/10 of the price Kawasaki Phuket asked for the OEM replacement. Next day shipping was 300B.

I did end up spending 2 hours looking for the place where they ship (why bother ask for my address?), so I am posting a google map of the location, should anybody in Phuket find himself in the same situation.
