Ok, so i went to buy some tires for my car. For some reason i always thought this car was supposed to have an H speed rated tire. I had 4 of them on it. But no where does it say i need an H speed rating. The sticker on the car has over spray on it, si it could be hidden under the paint. Anyone have any idea?

the sticker on my door says 215-60r-14, nothing about h.
i wouldnt worry about it, i dont think the computer will let you go above 120mph, or at least mine wont.

Your computer wont let you go past 120? Thats brutal. I had mine going 120 in 4th, i never did get it into 5th and try further as there was a bridge comming really quickly. I should try that again and see what happens and see if the computer kicks in. Apparently its supposed to kick in when you hit red line, but mine lets me go to about where 8 grand would be on the tach, then i changed gears. hmm weird.

thats crazy man i cant even think of taking my car to 8k. i start losing power after about 5500 rpm, my new engine has never been above 6200, and thats just from reving it up.
i was in 4th gear doing 120 at about 5400 and it wouldnt go any further, i shifted in to 5th and nothing, down shifted, under full boost and still nothing! pisses me off.
