Recommendation re buying tyres in South Dublin

    I'm looking to get some tyres for my wife's fiesta (it's a late 90's model).

    Just wondering if anyone could recommend a good place to buy around Rathfarnham, Dundrum, Tallaght areas. I don't want to spend too my much as the car isn't used too much apart from city driving and the odd foray on the M50.

    A recommendation for tyre brand would be great as well.

    Consider putting on part worn
    you should be able to pick up primer brand tyres for small money.

    Belgard road if heading from tallaght bypass to nass road just after you pass turn for halfords take the next left there is two part worn tyre companies there.
    They are just before the luas crosses the belgard road.

    What is the size of tyres ?

    I doubt they are huge so even brand new mid range brands will be cheap enough.

    Does it really worth to go to part worn route ?

    I prefer my car to be able to stop as quick/stable as possible during an emergency braking situation. It can happen during any kind of driving.

    Got mine in Chalkey Tyres in Renlegh the last time. Cheaper and handy little garage.

    The wheels are 185/55 R14. I'd prefer to get new tyres as I think part worns can vary in quality and you could get lucky/unlucky.

    I got a quote for €70 each for Kumho and fit. Worth a shot?
