Kenda MX or Cheng Shin MX fat and thin blackwall would be good for the time, Mongoose or CyclePro skinwalls would have been around too but they are like the proverbial rocking horse do do  :daumenhoch:.  If you want something that looks similar to oldschool all black tyres try the Tioga Comp x or Factory MX (basically an all black Comp II)  ;).

This is what I have on my 78 DeCoster.. Cheng Shin Knobbly (20x2.125 front / 20x1.75 rear).  They are ideal for your build.
