Tire Speed Ratings
The following is the design limit for extended use:
- Q — 99 mph
- R — 106 mph
- S — 112 mph
- T — 118 mph
- U — 124 mph
- H — 130 mph
- V — 149 mph
- W — 168 mph †
- Y — 186 mph †
- ZR — 186+ mph †
† For tires over 149 mph, some manufactures use ZR but others will use
the same rating for over 186 mph.
    Therefore, you should check with the manufacturer for specific use.
