I have never heard of wheels being speed rated. Tires are speed rated.
I have had mine up to 120 on a race track in Mexico.

I have had my TSW Nurburgrings up to 135 many times at the track. They are great wheels (and not very heavy).

Good to know, I wont be doing 135, just seems that the
C5 will do 165, like to know if the wheels could deal with it.

I haven't heard of wheels being speed rated either, just that they have to meet safety specs. I would imagine you will be OK with the TSWs.

You'll need to clarify if these are for your Vette or a Cessna?
