Default Now, where we up to?

Oh, yes, tyres!

It is unusual that your old tyres have marked on them "For 5 deg rims" as this is the bead seat profile commonly described as "for American wheels". If these old tyres fit your rims with no trouble, then current US manufacture 9.00-16 tyres should be right.

Mike Kelly posted these dimensions of the differences some time ago:
