For safety, start with a .160. Then do your plug check.
Something to keep in mind; it may run really strong and be very lean, which is why plug checks are so important.

Check your plugs before you go off changing jets, I have the same situation, I am at sea level and I'm running a 135 min, I can't understand it but it works and rides hard.

Jetting is affected by more than elevation; ambient air temperature and humidity can also affect it and your fuel/oil mix. You may find that in some places, you will need to re-jet during the day.
Also, if your engine doesn't run smoothly on bottom-end-partial throttle, it isn't the main jet. Most likely is the pilot jet for that.
