it should say on them some ware, i.e 215/75/r15 - width/hight/rimsize

or if all else fails measure from the outside of the tire to the outside of the rim, that will give you a good idea of what the middle number should be.

pretty sure it's 80 when not written on there, don't hold me to it though!

yeah if it doesn't show a profile they are 80's

80 is the standard profile, anything below 80 is a low profile and will be marked on the tyre wall
