  "seo_desc": "Tyres in Belfast fitted at home, at work or at a local garage. Compare brands for your size and see the fitted price before you book, across the city.",
  "lead": "Belfast is a city between the hills and the lough, with the M1, M2 and M3 meeting near the centre and Cave Hill looking down over it all. Compare tyres for your car, have them fitted at home in Ballyhackamore or Stranmillis or at work, or choose a local garage, and know your price first.",
  "driving": [
    "Most of Belfast's traffic funnels through the Westlink, the A12, which links the M1 from the south and west with the M2 and M3 near the docks. Its junctions at York Street and Broadway are among the busiest in Northern Ireland, and stop-start traffic there wears front tyres faster than open road miles.",
    "Bus lanes for the Glider rapid transit run along the main roads to east and west Belfast, and parking on arterial routes like the Lisburn Road and the Newtownards Road is tight. Kerbs and potholes on busy terraced streets are a common cause of sidewall damage.",
    "Northern Ireland has no Clean Air or Low Emission Zone charges. Its MOT is run by the DVA at its own test centres, and tyre condition is one of the things checked, so it is worth having worn or damaged tyres replaced before your test date."
  ],
  "mobile": "Plenty of Belfast homes are terraces without a drive, so a quiet side street, a residents' car park or your work car park is often the best place for a fitting. Tell us where the car will be, and the fitter brings your tyres, fits and balances them where it is parked and takes the old ones away.",
  "workshop": "If kerbside work is not practical, choose a workshop on the network around Belfast. Each one shows its distance and its fitted price before you book, and a garage is the place for alignment.",
