    Banks Tyres are very good, based in Turners Cross. Tyre Stop are very good too, again in Turners Cross. Fast Fit out in Togher took good care of mine when I was out there, same with Carfit up towards Mayfield.

    I can recommend two myself, Banks Tyres in Turner's Cross and Forge Hill Tyres.

    Banks have a very well-equipped facility and they're very nice folks - last time I was in there, I went for a 4 wheels alignment and upon finding a little bit of play in one of the front wishbones ball joints, they simply advised about going back after servicing the suspension. I also had them rotate my tires; They also rebalanced them and only took 20 Euro, even if they they did work a good 30 minutes on the car.

    Forge Hill is a smal place, only one or two folks working in there, but very nice nonetheless - I met them when I needed a puncture patched up, and they took no money for it. They sourced tires for me at a very reasonable price and fitted them in less than an hour on a saturday morning. They don't have a 4-wheels alignment machine, if you need it.

    Same about Forge Hill, Jamie is sound out!

    Used Banks for a 4 wheel alignment last year and found them good too.
