The wheels are American Racing libre wheels . Nice!

It's hard to tell what width from the photo .. could be anywhere from 5 (
less likely) to 5.5-7.. id suspect 5.5-6".

You probably want a 185/60/13.  Though you .might be ok with a 205/50/13
..  you likely want a period look..  and given the age of the tyres you
have ..probably even cheap tyres will feel grippy.

Vredisteine are a bit pricey.. but their sports classic range is period
looking and perform very well

You can get track focused semi slicks white easily in 13s .  But... They
are noisy... Don't ride as well and tend to throw stones... Falken,
nankang, Dunlop, Yokohama.

Maxxis and Achilles have some 13 that are reasonably priced
