Re: Really Ass Luck !!!!
Bro, thanks for info. Though Dunearn road is quite far from where I stay and roam. If I get a puncture (touch wood - lucky there are wood panels in the E60) near there, will definitely go find the honest uncle at Shell station. Cheers!

Re: Really Ass Luck !!!!
Hi same thing happened to me. And i was driving with a flat tyre for awhile. If the tyre is salvagable (i.e. innertube is still intact) a patch job will suffice and it costs only $5/-
But pls take note the tyre is much weakened and is safe for only driving in Singapore where the speed is usually 30-120kph....when i drove to KL and averaged 180-200kph, the same tyre failed and i had a side wall crack and was stranded on the North South highway....
I suppose its ok if you dont drive up north.....just do the patch job for $5/-

How flat was yours? Mine, immediately went to petrol station nearby at river valley and pressure was 140. Drove to killiney straight away and got the tire checked out. Hope that did not compromise the tire..

Re: Really Ass Luck !!!!
Mine was completely flat...so flat i cant even pump air into the tyre...had to tow the car to workshop. But they patch for only $5/- as it was just a small hole.
The problem is that the tyres integrity is weakened so for fast long distance driving at 180kph and above its not safe anymore....but its ok for driving in sinkie roads as our average speed in the city is 20-50kph...if the traffic is moving...otherwise its even lower...so its safe for our roads...
