Don't think I ever heard of a 5.90 size. 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?"
