Hi Arty, I cant help you with the tyres, but its good to see you here with us Country Buggy nuts...
I've put together the Country Buggy Gallery here

Neither of yours are on there, so if you could email me pics of both to vwnuts@bigpond.com i'll add them to it.
Cheers

You might want to check out a thread on this started by Bill Moore earlier.
TYRES FOR COUNTRY BUGGY
http://forums.aussieveedubbers.com/viewtopic.php?tid=68353
Also, please try to send Graham some pics of your two CBs.
He has done a fantastic job of collating a pictorial collection of known CBs. It really is a labor of love for CBs.
All of us love to see pics of CBs. We all jump up and down for joy whenever a new CB is found and pics of them are revealed.
So click away and let us see what you have.
Regards,
Steve
