Tires are built for much higher speeds -
and you can buy them for your car. A waste of money unless you have
the right car, though.

I don't think so, do you have a reference for the car tire?

While not *over* 200mph, this is close.
(Y) rated - tested to 186+mph

I believe this tire contains rubber and would not be suitable for space
vehicles.



Seeing as there are cars that can and will do 200+, it would stand to

reason


that there are tires built for them.

Funny it doesn't say anything here about them not being made of rubber

Noone cares what you don't know, Mullen.



ISWYM. I certainly don't have such massive ignorance as you, splappy.
