    I'm looking at getting some rubber from either camskill or openo.

    Do they have black Friday sales, or 11/11 sales.

    Or should I just buy them now.

    Just buy them now, there's no way of knowing what if any they will have on Black Friday.

    Camskill are working out cheaper with the weak sterling so if your not in a panic I'd hold tough, they have no sales really.

    I don't think I have ever seen Camskill have a flash sale or the likes. I have found tyreleader.ie prices to be very good too but haven't ordered from them yet.

    I haven't looked at Camskill but anyone know how their prices compare again Eiretyres?

    The Camskill website will give you the Euro equivalent including shipping to ROI when you go to check out your basket.

    Black Friday is little over 2 weeks away.

    I'll hang on, and see what happens price wise.

    I know what I want, well I've short listed 3 different models, so I'll see which if any are discounted.

    Oponeo has always had better deals for me than Eiretyres.
    Plus Eiretyres have some stupid security requirements to buy from them.

    I didn't even know Black Friday was a thing over here.

    The conversion rate on camskill is not what you'll get from your bank. Their rate vs your banks rate can make a big difference depending on your order.

    example -
    225/40R18 Michelin Pilot Sport 4 - £424.76 or €471.48 using their conversion. Even XE says €476.08. In actual fact you'll pay closer to €489 with your bank.

    I thought this was going to be a thread on a brand of tyres called black Friday :(

    Trump is forcing everyone to adapt Mercian values and traditions :eek:


    On topic, I don''t know if they have bargains, you can wait and see if there is no rush. Or just go ahead and buy now.

    Took the plunge and bought today




    275/40RF18 99Y (*/MOE) EXT TL Pirelli Cinturato P7 Runflat

    245/45RF18 100Y XL (*/MOE) EXT TL Pirelli Cinturato P7 Runflat




    Not in any immediate need for them, but the exchange rate is good, and so are my finances at the moment, and i have plenty of room for storage.

    Just bought 4 tires from Sandyford Tyres, worked out cheaper than online and fitting, and zero hassle.

    I have always found Hankook tyres cheaper in a bricks and mortar shop compared to online.

    Fulda Sport Control 215 50 R16W.

    I've always found Camskill to be the cheapest. Eiretyres always seem to be that bit dearer.

    The online savings did not stack up for me when you I everything into account. Maybe other sizes/brands throw up bigger online savings. I'd also be looking to support decent independent local tyre fitters like the one I mentioned. Who incidentally will also fit tyres purchased online.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 51,360 ✭✭✭✭bazz26


    It depends on the tyre brand and tyre size whether it is cheaper to buy locally or online. Most of the main stream brands and sizes can be bought locally for similar money as online when you take all costs into account. For anything high end or a not so common size then it is nearly always cheaper to source them online.
