I purchased these tires for a 1972 VW Super Beetle. Considering no tire shop in the greater Pasadena had tires that fit my Bug, ordering online from Simple Tire was great option. I had the them shipped to American Tire Depot, after confirming with the shop they would be able to receive them and install them after arrival. I was a little concerned, seeing as how the tire size recommended for a '72 Beetle is not longer being produced. But the order, shipping and installation went off without a hitch and now my Bug rides much smoother and has much better handling with 4 new Nexen SB802 installed on it. For any vintage VW owners out there looking for replacement tires, I would highly recommend these Nexen SB802.

Great place to buy tires. Fast, easy and good prices. Really like my new tires.
The tires are very good, handle well under all the conditions its seen. Very smooth ride, and the tire noise is very low as well. Extremely pleased with the purchase.

An all-season tire, the SB802 from Nexen is designed for use on classic cars and offers drivers vintage style with modern technology.
Features & Benefits
- All-season tread

- Built with wide grooves and open shoulders that remove water from the tire to reduce the risk of hydroplaning on wet roads
Drivers of classic cars need a tire that looks the part, and that's exactly what the SB802 from Nexen does. Featuring vintage styling to match the look of many classic cars, the SB802 utilizes a modern rubber compound for a longer tread life and strong traction and performance year-round.
