    I know this has been asked before but I would like to know if part worn tyres are still available and where in Limerick can I purchase them.

    Thanks.

    Any breakers yard around limerick. You could get a car that the owner fitted new tyres too before crashed.

    Thomond Tyres or as suggested try a breakers yard like Jack Moore's. I'd avoid Bob Sweeney if it was me as he's a robbing b@stard imo.

    Breakers yard your best bet I'd say, a lot of the regular tyre yards that did do them don't anymore for whatever reason.

    I have to agree with this Bob Sweeney's is a rip off. I had to laugh at what he was looking for for parts. $$$$$$

    Try the tyre shop in Patrickswell if possible they have decent part worn and at good prices.

    There is legislation coming in soon which will ban part worn tyres from being sold here due to safety issues and lack of regulations around how they are tested, this is why alot of places don't deal in them anymore.

    If buying them from a breaker's yard just make sure you see the car they are on before even thinking of taking them. You really don't want to be messing with tyres that were on a car involved in a collision from your own as well as others safety, just to save a few euro. Remember that tyres and brakes are all that keep you and your car on the road.
