I wasn't aware that the Michelin tire was speed rated at only 62 mph. Even though I normally only run at 62, I also don't think I want to always be running at the tire max speed. I just looked and the GY is speed rated to 75mph which gives a little cushion. One question is whether the Michelin tires speed rateing would be higher when not near max load as it wouldn't be in our usage.
