Well after a long search locally, I finally managed to turn up a pair of 15x4.5 SS front runners to go with my rears that I've had for 3 or 4 years!
I had planned to buy a pair when in your fine country over Xmas 2019/20 but it didn't work out.
I realise they are flat spoke nothing specials but beggars can't be choosers!
Would love some input for tires if anyone has some suggestions?

A nice set of Repro Goodyear bias ply tires would look great!

Damien, I would go with the Firestone 670-15 black wall bias ply tires for the front. Coker has them. I have them on some day 2 wheels. I like them. Here is a pic of them. They have the pie crust edges... Very cool look.

I got a set of the Firestone tires from Rusty Small. He's a sponsor on this sight. I like the way they look.
