Estimated top speed for a 302 and 3:55 gears is about 110-115, at say, 5500 rpm? You can calculate it, I didn't bother, but I bet I'm not far off. Unless you got a really good motor and can pull a 5th gear over drive, then maybe 120-125. This assumes of course you have enough horse power to rev to 5500 in 4th at that speed.

So what is a "low speed" tire rated for in mph?
