    Here are the rules yall tell me what it looks like

    4.6 TIRES: DOT-approved tires in good condition are required to be used. The tire speed rating must exceed the speed rating that the car is attempting to achieve. For more info on speed ratings: http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tirete....jsp?techid=35
    4.6.1 All tires must have an equal (or greater) Load Carrying Rating and Speed Rating than the original (OEM) manufacturer’s requirement.
    4.6.2 HIGHLY RECOMMENDED: The use of tires with better ratings than OEM is recommended.
    4.6.3 Drag radials (DOT spec) are not approved.
    4.6.4 Drag racing (DOT-spec) “skinnies” are not approved.

    Z-rated and a dang good price for a very popular tire here on this site. I can think of at least 4 members running these in different sizes. Everyone is very happy with them.
    i know the RH06's are fine at 160ish, what's another 20mph?
