It's a bit far from Dublin 15 but I rang Sandyford Tyres when Eirtyres recommended them for fitting and they basically matched the price to €10 difference c/t Eirtyres online price (admittedly tyres were Dunlop SP3000s which are average W rated, etc., ).

If you go to the fitting section of Eirtyres they will have a local recommended fitter for you. Cost is usually aroudn €10 per tyre.

I used to live in the D15 area but never really found a suitable place in D15. The best I found was on the old Airport Road in Santry - Advanced Tyres (not pitstop). Very good value for money, well compare to everyone else anyway. For my wife's car I bought 4 new 195 / 55 R15 Pirelli P6000s for €80 each including fitting and balancing. This was compared to €130 per tyre off a mainstream kwick-rip off place in D15.

Have used the place a few times and found it to be good.

eiretyres are good if you can find someone to fit the tyres for ya. Most places won't fit the tyres cause they want to sell you tyres cause they make most of their money on the mark up and not the fitting.
Dave McCann Tyres in Dub 15 practically told me to **** off when I asked would he fit tyres if I bought them from eiretyres even though he is listed as a suggested fitter on the site!
