Ready for road with Modern Tyres Nenagh

A tried and trusted tyre retail and repair centre in Nenagh for almost 25 years now, Modern Tyres is bringing that legacy of solid service to local customers into the future. Located on Ormond St, opposite the military barracks, the garage was originally Sherlock's Garage before it was transformed by Seán McCullough as QuickFit in 1999. After Seán retired, Modern Tyres - Ireland's largest independent tyre retailer - took on the running of the centre in 2018. Two years later Brendan Murphy came on board as Manager of the local Modern Tyres depot. The founding member of the Nenagh Classic Car Club in 2013, Brendan has always been passionate about cars and - with 15 years' previous experience of working in retail management in Nenagh - ensuring the smooth running of Modern Tyres is a natural fit for Brendan.

Brendan's arrival is very much in keeping with the local legacy at Modern Tyres having grown up on this street Brendan's family roots go back generations on Ormond street, in fact all of those employed at the Modern tyres depot are Nenagh people. Among them are Willie Lawlor, who has over 30 years of experience in the trade, having started out at the old More Miles garage at Tyone; Alan Cleere, a mechanic by trade, now 10 years at the Ormond St centre, Henry Ryan who is the brother of former manager Lenny Ryan, and Seán's wife Mary McCullough who looks after the administration side of things in the office.
