Are you sure it wasn't 5.60, which was the common Beetle size? When I had my 68 Dk Blue square I always wanted a pair of the Metzler Blue Blizzard snow tires. These had a black carcass which showed at the sidewalls, with a BLUE tread compound. I've only ever seen one pair, and they were truly awesome looking. Anyone out there got a pair? What did you mean by "the rim weight is German?" - ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ------------------------------------------------------------------- List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list or mailto:help@vwtype3.org
