Hi All, I am helping a couple out who bought a Beetle without a spare and on some pretty old rubber.

They popped a tyre over the weekend and are now stranded with 3 working wheels.

Would be vegy grateful for any leads on a replacement tyre to get them moving and an extra rim for a spare would be a bonus.

Many thanks in advance!

Do you not have any tyre shops in your town.

Nankang or Hankook make the 165/ 80 15

Good luck
