Hi. Am picking up my steel wheels from Volksheaven on Sat. Ive got a bluestar which is lowered, what size tyres should I get. Id like something less hughmongous than my old air cooled? Ive got low profile on, is there something sort of half way between that and whoppers?

what size steels? Stick as close to stock rolling radius as you can, but again some engines can take more variation than others

Well I told them at Volksheaven what I had vehicle wise and trust that they know what I need. What size do I need?

hey!
nobody on here is going to recommend undersize tyres or tyres that do not match the vans weight.
if you have standard 14" rims you have your answer
