Been tire shopping. 2 places said I needed to spend extra $$$ because my truck ( 1987 f250 with a non turbo diesel) requires 112mph tires.
REALLY? 1. I dont drive that fast. A ticket at that speed and I'd go to jail. No thanks. 2. it's a non turbo 6.9 Diesel! It may hit 85 mph down hill against the 3800 rpm governor. I dont know of any older truck be it a Ford,Dodge or GM that would go that fast anyway.
I just hang out around 67mph in the slow lane anyhoo.
It does also require "E" rated tires. I am ok with that.
