Hi .. I'm a new member and am close to needing new tyres for my recently acquired 1969 Beetle . Location Brisbane . Please .. is there a Club favoured tyre supplier/fitter here in South East Queensland ? . I believe that 165 R 15 tyres are the regular preferred choice these days ( ?? ) .. Much appreciate any advice .. thanks .. okf@bigpond.com

Between Bob Jane and Jax Tyres you'll find that they should stock Hankooks, Federals, Nexxens, Kumhos off the top of my head - I just bought some Hankooks for $107 each from Jax (same price quoted by BJ).
