pretty much my experience which is why maxxis is what I'm going with. Next set however I will re visit the goodyears and give them a little more time to prove themselves but they do seem promising.
With all other ST tire manufacturers providing speed ratings on their ST tire sidewalls makes one wonder why Maxxis is lagging. They have the test facilities, so, why no speed rating? Their tire representatives and retailers may offer verbal conformation of higher speeds for the ST tires. In the tire industry, a ST tire without any identification for its speed rating being displayed on its sidewall has a maximum rating of 65 MPH.
When you get your new Maxxis tires installed please let us know if they have a speed letter or other markings to establish their certified speed rating.
