lukepwc 1 - March 29, 2026

"Had a very good experience at Banks, ordered Michelin Pilot sport 5s and they worked out over €70 cheaper than the previous place I had bought tyres. Very pleasant staff and careful fitters that ensured alloys were unmarked while fitting the new tyres. Will certainly be back again."
