I don't know what mine are rated for. Rated for suck perhaps. Oh well, scared the **** out of me. Never going to do that till I replace some shocks. By the time I can afford suspension stuff, I'll have gone through 5 sets of tires..

I found out coming down 35E into the Burnsville split that my bonnie floats sideways a lil lot at 97 mph. On a gradual left hand turn. But I think the alignment may have something to do with that. I think I may need more down force seeing how I moved my leveler bar to get a lil more of a rake out of it. 115 on a kinda rough straight country road........A lil bumpy but solid. That'* my 2 cents

The letter is for your speed (or as I like to call it performance) rating
or on an older SSE Bonne tire sizes being 215/60/16
newer SE Bonnes used 215/65/15s and 225/60/16s
2000+ Bonnes used 225/60/16s and 235/55/17s unless its a GXP then its a 235/50/18!
I knows my tayahs.....its my bizznass
*=112mph
T=118mph
H=130mph
V=146mph
Z=146+mph
there are underratings for Z rated tires such as W and Y
W is for up to 168 mph Y is 186+ I believe......Ive got W rated tires on my Bonne...and dont see myself going anywhere near 168 mph!
