Wow speed "N" that's really low. That's one notch above a "temporary" spare tire rating. I know the diesels won't go very fast but I'm not sure I'd be comfortable with that speed rating on any vehicle that was ever on the highway.

$22 per tire is that right? I mean what can you expect at that price?
