why is that so important - they are all Q, R or S

all have speed ratings in excess of the limiter of a stock Ranger

anybody with a chip who wants to go fast should have some nice street tires anyway

my BFG AT KO are Q rated
my BFG MT KM are also Q rated

Q is not a speed rating. it's a studless/studdable rating...
as in snow studs

plenty of snow tires in the H & V rating?
to get a M&S rating the compound has to be soft and the lug spacing large, I doubt there are plenty of choices
I am not saying there are no choices, but they are expensive and not very common
examples would be tires from Pirelli, Michelin, and the Bridgestone Blizzacks
