Why ST tires?
Hey All, Total noob, trying to soak all this RV stuff in all at once. The Maxxis ST tires on my recently purchased 2001 TT "look" like new, but I don't know how old they actually are, so don't kno...

However, the googled link you gave plainly says towing speed is "As Posted".
Yet you've been saying the trailer towing speed in Virginia is unposted and is 55mph.
And one other thing. Why would Virginia limit travel trailer speed to 55 mph, when all other towed vehicle speed limits, including 18 wheelers, is what ever is posted on the highway being traveled, and unposted speed limits on Virginia secondary roads is 45 mph?
I don't know what you're looking at, but it sure isn't the link I provided. That link is to Virginia towing laws as posted on Trailer World's webiste and clearly states max speed towing = 55mph. I'll copy and paste the text. It says nothing about a travel trailer - it's towing period.
