I think it depends on the brands.

According to some of my msia colleagues, they will change tyres in SG as it is cheaper even after conversion. Usually the imported brands, made in Europe, Japan variants will cost more than SG.

You are right. Unless you get those locally made in Malaysia. Otherwise Singapore is cheaper.

Those brands like Maxxis, made in Indonesia, Msia, etc tyres should be cheaper in Msia.. But these brands don't really cost much more in SG to begin with. Something like $80-100/piece for typical 16".

I changed to Neuton, made in Indonesia, 18" for $150/piece in SG.

XM2 also cheap there. I change at RM200 per piece for 15inch. Originally was RM270 but after trade in, become RM200 per piece. Inclusive free alignment and tyre rotation. They even pump my spare tyre. :)

i was recommended by my m'sia mechanic to change tyres in singapore as he said its much cheaper . Also heard from my colleague saying that tyres change in singapore is safer and better cos u nvr know if you will get "smoke" anot.

Btw recently i change my tyres to ls2000 good year "made in japan" plus rims and was charged at sgd 700 for whole set cum personal bolts to lock the rims. Not sure if its ex anot.

When you change tyre try to check the year made. I made sure it is less than 6 months old.
