    Anyone know of a place in Dublin (or near Dublin) that sells BF Goodrich tyres.

    I'm looking for BF Goodrich g-FORCE PROFILER 225/45 R17 91Y .

    You can get them here for 147,90 without fitting
    http://ssl.delti.com/cgi-bin/reifenbestellen.pl?typ=R-105031&dsco=24

    But I've found a place in Dublin that will do them for 135euro fitted and balanced...only thing is they won't have them until next Wednesday.

    So, if anyone knows of a place I could check that might have them sooner I'd appreciate it. Thanks.

    I had to order mine in. Took two weeks. Very happy with them. Surprised no one stocks them.

    Thanks! Picked them up today from AD Dublin.

    Now just need someone to fit them. Anyone got any experience with these guys http://www.atlastyres.ie/ ? They're charging 20euro to fit a tyre.

    Would you bother? Are they not just cheap Michelins?

    I have them on my Focus, albeit their mid range offering. They are grand, but nothing spectacular, the grip when wet is only average. I'd buy them again, but I'd take a set of Bridgestones, Contis or whatever decent brand was on offer just as fast.

    BF Goodrich are huge brand in their own right and are massive in the US. Even if they were cheap Michelin is that not a benefit? They are not pitched against Michelin either in technology or price.

    I know, merely pointing out I wouldn't go to extraordinary lengths to get them unless I needed to!
