Recommendations for place to fix a flat car tire

Which island?

Tire Kingdom by Kmart is a good place on STT.

H&H Tire and Battery, near Sunny Isle. $10 a patch. Just drive into the side and if there's a spot they'll take you right away.

Or Target Tire, close to 5 Corners.

Sorry about that--I'm on STX. Thanks, islandjoan.

I second Dennis at Target Tire!

Anyone have a phone number for Target Tire? I found one in the Daily News but I called and found it was out of service.

Thanks!

You can get a quick 10 dollar patch at Welco across from Schooner bay as well

Cliff at 5 Corners gas station also does a good job.

All--thanks so much for the recommendations. I ended up at Target and they did a quick and painless plug for me (well, at least it was painless for me--don't know it felt to the Jeep). $10 and about five minutes. Perfect!

For anyone intersted, you can seriously by the patch kits for dirt cheap, I think I got my last one at Gallow's bay. It takes all of 3 minutes to do, you can google the exact procedure and be done in no time. Can be quicker/easier than getting to the tire shop sometimes as much as we have stuff in our tires here.

If they doubled the gas tax and spent the extra .07/gallon on roads we would all actually save money on tires. I have a car with 7500 miles on it that have 60,000 mile tires that are ground down to almost nothing. For what I pay in tires I could easily afford more gas taxes for better roads! I can't believe I'm advocating a tax increase though 🙂
