Hi Jake, welcome to the list. I think the original size tires were 165/14
which have a 620mm outside diameter. Your local tire shop can find an
equivalent diameter tire. I *think* it is 165R X 14 (622mm outside
diameter). If I'm wrong you never heard of me (and someone on this list will
correct me).
Good luck
