That is such a kick ass color, do you have a color code for sea blue?

also I have grey/black interior do you think that color would look good or would it clash?

Hey sled, found a couple pics taken of your car from Springmeet...here ya go man.

damn those pictures are cool...i actually got an invitated to show my beetle at the meet but didnt get around to registering in time, oh well. thanks to whoever took those. where did you find them by the way?

i dont know the color code but i could go look if youd like.

i dont know about grey/black, my interior is white/black and it works just fine i think.

165's arent that big...it had 165's on it when i got it front and rear? what size is stock? (or roughly since they were probably biasplys).

thanks for the compliments

Stock your car came with 5.60x15 but the standard stock replacement tire for the old bias ply 5.60 is a 165. They look the best on stock rims in the back.
