I'd recommend Kee Hin -near turning to jln telok gadong, opposite Esso.

They are Michellin dealers but they have other brands too.

My wife's car is Sentra SG (A) and it's running on 215/45R17. Not sure if it's the same size as original E7, will check and ask for you kawamx2. I'm using Falken Ziex 225/40R18 in my Airtrek Turbo, so far, so okay. No complains.

I got my tires changed but not at Kee Hin. Just want to share with you my experience there.

I found out that the boss is not friendly, pretty cocky and unpolite. First thing he did was critisizing me for using cheap tires (SIMEX). I agree it is cheap tires but I think it is rude to tell your customers that right on the face.

Anyway, he kept asking me to buy the only available model there for 17", Pilot 3 for Rm490 each. I wanted to a cheaper tire and again, he gave me that sarcastic look. Frankly,

I left Kee Hin and went to another shop nearby and got my tires changed to Yokohama A-Drive R1 for Rm350 each. Pictures tell everything.






Kee Hin was recomended not only by members here but also my friend. I was pretty dissapointed how the boss treated me. Maybe I am driving a cheap car and using some cheap tires, but I think that is not to way to treat the customers like that.

Honestly, I wudn't recomend any of my friends to Kee Hin, if anyone asked.

if i were you , "Simex" tires are not tires aer ? you mana sakit ?

that's why i travelled all the to Rawang to change my set of tires although i live along Old Klang Road , why Rawang ? honestly speaking it's even cheaper than Klang and shorter queue of course ...

I plan 2 get a new car soon. I've also identified a used number plate that I want 2 register onto my new car.

The situation is d used number is on a bike n the owner is only willing 2 sell me d number but not d bike. I thought of registering a new number 4 d bike, but does that free up the old number? Even if it does, 2 whom does d old number belong 2?Can I use it 2 register my new car?Sounds confusing rite?

Any idea hw do I go about this?
