The Carbery Tyres van loaded with wheels on the N71 in Clonakilty

Tyres in Dunmanway

Carbery Tyres is 24 minutes from Dunmanway, in on the R586 through Ballinascarthy to the N71 bypass at Clonakilty. We fit tyres to suit every budget, with Hankook as the headline brand, and we repair punctures, balance wheels and service cars in the same visit.

Dunmanway driving is hard on tyres. Sam Maguire country is farming country, and the roads in off the Cousane and Coolkelure sides carry potholes, patched tar and soft verges. Uneven shoulder wear or a pull in the steering usually means the tracking has shifted, and 3D wheel alignment puts it right.

Tyres, alignment and servicing are handled in the same visit, so one run in on the R586 covers the lot.

Dunmanway driving is hard on tyres. Sam Maguire country is farming country, and the roads in off the Cousane and Coolkelure sides carry potholes, patched tar and soft verges. Uneven shoulder wear or a pull in the steering usually means the tracking has shifted, and 3D wheel alignment puts it right.

Why Do My Tyres Wear Out So Fast Around Dunmanway?

Rough surfaces do it. Every hard knock off a pothole or a verge nudges the tracking, and once the wheels stop pointing the same way the tyres scrub themselves bald along one shoulder. The roads out the Cousane and Coolkelure sides are the usual culprits.

Our 3D alignment rig measures all four wheels and sets them back to the maker's figures. It is the cheapest way to make the next set of tyres last.

One run, several jobs

Can Everything Be Done in One Trip From Dunmanway?

That is the point of the run. Tyres, balancing, alignment and a full car service are all handled at the same unit, so the 24 minutes in on the R586 covers several jobs at once rather than one.

Ring 023 885 8055 before you leave Dunmanway and the parts and the tyre size will be in before you land, which keeps the visit as short as the trip.

Why is my steering wheel crooked after hitting a pothole?

A hard pothole strike knocks the tracking out, and the off-centre wheel is the giveaway. Left alone it wears the tyres unevenly and costs you a set well before their time. 3D wheel alignment measures all four wheels and resets them properly.

Do Carbery Tyres service cars for Dunmanway drivers?

Full servicing, oil changes, timing belts, brakes and diagnostics are all handled in the workshop on the N71, so the service and the tyres become one errand rather than two. See the car servicing page.

How do I know if a pothole has damaged more than the tyre?

A wobble in the steering, a new pull to one side or a slow loss of pressure after a hard strike all point past the rubber to the rim or the tracking. The wheel comes off, the rim is checked and the alignment rig settles the rest in minutes.

What tyres suit the roads around Dunmanway?

For pothole country a tougher mid-range tyre often makes more sense than the cheapest one on the shelf, and we will say so rather than sell you short. Stock runs from budget brands to Hankook premium. Ring 023 885 8055 with your size for a straight price.
