Default Colway formula 2 tyres- speed rating?

Anyone know the speed rating?

Is it a particuarly gay "R" like the maxsport RB5 is?

You sure the R isnt for Radial on the Maxsports ?

Competition tyres are not usually given a speed rating.

Honestly dont know mate!

Ive used them at 140mph or so and they didnt blow up, I was just hoping to find a tyre that the manufacturer officially claims can do that rather than just me hanging on by a wing and a prayer
