I have been driving Vredenstein Sprint 165R15 radials for the last 12 years. They ROCK. They have a subtly sporty look, and they're sticky and smooth as glass. I've never seen them advertised in VW mags. But they're popular with the Eurosport crowd. They run and look great on a bug.

I buy them online from www.tiresunlimited.com. $54.74 each (last March).

Vredenstein Sprints are great tires. Vredenstein is almost unknown in theUSA, but they make exceptionally good tires. I have them on two cars and just love them.

I have used Vredenstein before in various cars and they were quiet, sticky, and lasted forever. Another alternative is Pep Boys. They sell their 165R15 for +/-$32.00. I have purchased them for less than $26 on sale.

Good luck.
