66Beetle

Please can any expert give me a definitive answer on Inner Tubes ? It’s NOT for the A2 but for the 1966 Beetle. 155 80 15 Tyres are getting more difficult to find. The ones sold as “ Classic Tyres “ can be very expensive. So I looked at the 165 65 15 Winter Tyres currently on the A2 and thought Hmm. How would they be on the 1966 Beetle ? I would like to give them a try but of course the Rims on the Beetle are NOT for Tubeless Tyres. Only for Tubed use. I’ve seen a lot of people saying Inner Tubes are “ Illegal for Road Use “. That is obviously rubbish as all cars had Inner Tubes for the first 60 or 70 years of cars !
I have seen 15” Inner Tubes listed as fitting multiple Tyre Sizes with the same Tube Size, including 165 65 15 Tyres but is that correct ? I have read somewhere that you can not use Inner Tubes with Low Profile Tyres but down to 70 and even 65 Profile are OK.
Please can an expert advise ?
Thank you,
Steve
