Doc...good that you brought up the GST thingy...the last time I went to Soon Tyres and was quoted a price for CSC3 MO (Mercedes Originals) for my rear wheels...after the installation and when making payment...cashier said GST not included >:-( sibei TL... :nono:

so guys when getting quote... make sure is GST included hor... ;-)


I would like to share 2 ways that I get further discount (a little bit better than none):
1. Pay cash. Credit card or NETS will incur extra cost for the shops usage (sorry don't know how many %)
2. Don't get receipt. The sales get unrecorded and the shop owner can "siam" tax, especially 7% GST ! :mmoney: :mmoney:

This method doesn't work at all shops. Those bigger shops will not entertain... :nono:

Good luck ! :fingersx:

Cheers
Dan


:thumbsup: Good suggestions... can save some $$$...why not :1grin:

Wa Bro,

You use Re-11?
They're like track ready tyre, running on threadwear rate of 180 only. Wears out kinda fast.
It's lovely, grip well on wet and dry, unlike Re-070 which is only superb on dry.

How much did Yap quote you?
