Default 90x21 tire replacement size?

So I need to replace my front tire, it's a 21 inch wheel, the only numbers are 90x21, this tire fits tight in the fender so I need the same size. I am finding 80-90x21 or 90-90x21 what tire do I need?

It would help if you told us your bike and year, also what brand your current tyre is. In any event either of those sizes will do, but I suspect the 90/90 is the more suitable. Many of the major tyre brands will let you enter the details of your bike on their website and give you recommended tyres, so try that, as they are pre-programmed with that info.

Wait, the tire on your bike in the picture is an MH90-21 Dunlop, correct? If that is the case you ordered the correct size 80/90-21.
