We’re starting to drift off the subject and I’m going to be just as guilty, but I think you’re wrong there about run-flat tyres - whilst they might be more popular than they were even 10 years ago, they are by no means becoming the “norm”.

Ok. A long way from the norm but definitely on the increase along with self-sealing tyres:
An increasing amount of vehicle manufacturers are opting to fit new cars with run flat tyres – so when you buy, for example, a new BMW 5 series or Mini, then it will come with four run flat tyres.

Anyway, next time I need any form of tyre service, B-Quick will be my first port of call. :thumb:

Can see the mustard structure of the new Cha-am branch quickly taking shape at the end of the drive. Assume aiming to open at the same time as the new Lotus's.
Like Dannie Boy, I have also found B-Quick to be be most efficient and fair whether Thai or Farang.

I had the misfortune (or is it pleasure?) of finding my rear nearside tyre 90% deflated this morning and a quick inspection found a rogue screw in the middle of the tread.

I had the same problem back in 2021 so knew the drill only this time going to B-Quik in Cha Am rather than Hua Hin, but same impeccable service, if not better. One assistant found the offending screw and promptly removed it and inserted a plug, the 2nd assistant checked the tyre pressure on all 4 wheels and even used a misting bottle and cloth to clean them. Upon completion I asked how much and as before they said no charge, so it was just a 100 Baht tip and all completed within 10 minutes!!
