    eiretyres

    I haven't tried them myself, but several regulars here have. I can only remember reading about positive experiences...

    Alternatively, lookup the eiretyres prices and use those as bargaining tools with your local tyre outfitter

    Apparently a lot of place won't fit tyres that weren't purchased from them.

    Factor in the cost of having them fitted too (assuming you're not fitting them yourself).

    As Mr Magnolia says, almost nobody will fit tyres they didn't supply. Eiretyres do have a list of approved suppliers, I used one near Sandyford. They charged around €50 to fit & balance 4 tyres and dispose of the old ones. Eiretyres themselves were good, but you'd want to be saving a few quid to make it worth the hassle. I'd advise doing as Unkel says, and go with Eiretyres if the saving is big enough.
