To match your old Michelins (hopefully you haven't thrown them out yet!), flatten one out on a table and measure the width from bead to bead. Multiply that number (in mm) by 2.5 and order a Pasela with that width.
Should that be multiply, or divide? If it is multiply, what should I be flattening, as 70mmx2.5 would run 175mm, a number I would think to be wrong.

If divide, it looks like they were even smaller than 1 1/8 inchers
