100/90R19 Front 120/90R16 Rear you can probably fit a 130 but not sure what clearence you have. You would have to measure in you r swinger. This site seems to be really reasonable.

Your original front was probably 3.25 - 19 which is closest available metric of 100-90-19. At least that's what was on mine.

Have no idea about a 16 inch tire.
