G rated tire speeds

[lawnspecialties]

Just curious. I can't find it online and I don't have these tires yet. But many new toy haulers have them now.

What are the speed ratings of the G rated tires like the GoodYear 614s or the Sailuns?

Goodyear 614s which have a load rating of G have a speed rating of R which is up to 106 mph.

actually the R just means Radial ... the 614 is speed range L (75mph)

75 mph is great. My truck likes 66 mph for best fuel economy. But I like the fact I can do 70 mph to get around someone without worrying I'm going to bust a China bomb.

You're confusing the speed rating and the load rating.
Goodyear 614s which have a load rating of G have a speed rating of R which is up to 106 mph.

The Goodyear Tire Care Guide lists the G614 as having a speed rating of 75 mph.
