Default '68 stock wheels...

Anyone know the stock wheel and tire size for a '68 XLCH? Got a skinny 21 inch on the front now (still with the stock drum hub) but I want to go shorter and wider. Think stock was a 19-inch but not sure about width...

Stock was a 19, I'm not 100% positive but I believe that it was the same width as the new ones are now.
The stock rear tire on that bike was an 18", but everyone wound up changing them to the 16".
