If you want to keep to original sizing the Vredestein Classic seems to be popular Now rated 'H' or speeds below 210 kph.
Cheers and welcome to the forum.

Use an Ethylene Glycol based anti-freeze (containing no methanol) with non-Phosphate corrosion inhibitors suitable for use in aluminium engines.

Vredestein, Michelin, and Perelli all seem to have that size. Coker Tire as well. Some are not as cheap as others. I just 'googled' it.

Cheers,
