    cheapest option is to buy them off www.camskill.co.uk, get them delivered (usually within 48 hours in my experience) and get a tyre shop to fit them (€10-15 per tyre)


    Advance are quite expensive for what you get.

    I've always found phoenix tyres very good, they're across the road from the entrance to Croke pk.

    Havin said that Camskill are great for certain brands and sizes, they would be my first port of call.

    The likes of Camskill or Eiretyres are great, especially if you're getting performance tyres, etc. With standard tyres for an Almera the €60 fitting charge knocks the good out of buying them online. Dunno where you're living but for tyres for a regular car I have found Sandyford Tyre Centre (Maxol Garage Sandyford) to be very competitive.

    Advance pitstop are the dearest feckers around.

    I was told that the cheapest tyre that I could possibly get for my Volvo S60 was €155. I rang their other branch and was told €145. This was for an economy tyre. They also told me that a good tyre would be €220. Thankfully I knew better and went to Fastfit where I bought my goodyear tyre for €150 or could have gotten an economy for €90!
