Not sure but i would assume 80 is most likely though 70 could do. I stand to be corrected.

Im fairly sure the old Crossply size was 5.60, which I fairly sure equates to 155. I run 155x (80 i think) on my LP917's and they look right.

I know of many people who run the 165 width of tyre, its not wrong its just their preference.

I think the 165 is a more readily available tyre size too. The 155 arent so easy to find.
