    Do they have to be Pirelli P Zeros?

    If so, your question should really be "where can I get cheap Pirelli P Zeros"? :)

    Golden Pages + telephone + 30mins = results. ;)

    Good luck.

    Eiretyres isn't always the cheapest option after you factor in fitting, disposal, etc.

    I would have phrased it:

    "Reasonably priced, quality tyres"

    In Germany they have a word for "cheap" which is "billig" the literally it means cheap and nasty. Aldi and Lidl use the word all over the place.

    Might be out of your way but I always use Mc Quaid Tyres in Monaghan town.
    Usually at least 30% cheaper as he's a distributor for most brands. excellent fast service. Might be worth a call on (047)84488

    Agreed, nor do they always ship as quick or keep the stock that you need at the time.

    Shop around, sometimes eiretyres are better, sometimes not.

    No such thing as cheap tyres for that motor...maybe look at a different brand. There's good quality so called economy brands out there for this type of motor, something the likes of Federal wouldn't be bad at all. And before I get slated, I used them myself on my former car and couldn't find better for the money.

    I used to be able to get really cheap tyres, R17s for €30.00 each.

    Alot of other European countries don't repair punctures, tyres must be replaced.
    The result is that if a tyre picks up a puncture shortly after being fitted it must be discarded despite being almost new.
    These slightly used tyres get shipped to the UK and Ireland for resale.

    Unfortunately I no longer have a source on them but I'm sure someone must know where to get them.

    I can second Dave McCann's. Just make sure when you get your price it includes the disposal charge, think its about €4 a tyre.

    Incidentally, providing a rough location would help us narrow down where you hope to get these tyres
