BKKdreaming Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 since I am in Thailand now, other than that one roadside shop has anyone found a place to buy them ? any luck at a Michelin tire store ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daffy D Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 since I am in Thailand now, other than that one roadside shop has anyone found a place to buy them ? any luck at a Michelin tire store ? Seems these little fellas you see around are copy men and not supplied my the Michelin company so doubtful you would have any better chance finding any there as anywhere else. But worth a try. The other week I had to drive down South from Bangkok. I drove down the main southern route, road 2 I believe, but because I started my journey late and don't like driving at night did an overnight stop at Hua HIn, On the way down somewhere between Phetchaburi and Hua Hin I noticed at least a couple of places road side that sold the Michelin men. It was dark at this time but you couldn't miss the places as they were lit up with lots of flashing LED's. Don't know how easy they would be to spot in the daytime without all the lights. As I said it was dark at the time so probably nearer Hua Hin than Phetchaburi. Probably not a lot of interest to most unless you are in that part of the Thailand and fancy a drive in the country. Hua Hin Has several attractions including that fancy new water park so is quite nice family day out, you could always convince the missis, and you might just happen to see some Michelin men on the way. Just thought I'd mention my Michelin man sightings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron19 Posted December 30, 2014 Author Share Posted December 30, 2014 since I am in Thailand now, other than that one roadside shop has anyone found a place to buy them ? any luck at a Michelin tire store ? I can't give you any advice other than this regarding Tyreplus Thailand site. www. Tyreplus .co.th When you bring up the web site,there is a small white area showing province and area.Click on province then bangkok and then the area then you shoud see a list of tyreplus stores .There is also a map above this province and area section showing where these stores are located. http://www.tyreplus.co.th/images/index/pic1.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BKKdreaming Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 you will also notice that some have 2 legs going to stand one, and the other style has one leg down so it can sit on an edge...... but the Thai model that "wais" seems to have disappeared from ebay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
