& Radial tires without a stated speed rating ("s", "h", "v" ) are
& designed to sustain speeds of approx. 90 MPH.
85 mph max.
& For light duty off-road use consider the BFG Trail T/A,
& Dunlop Radial Rover R/V, Michelin LTX or a favorite of
& mine, Bridgestones' Super Digger 5.
& There is only one "speed rated" truck tire that I am aware
& of. Mickey Thompsons Baja Belted HP. It is not a radial but
& wears very well and you can't beat the handling for an
& All-Terrain type tire.
The Pirelli Scorpian is a LT tire with a higher speed rating.
