Thank the "I'm not responsible for my own actions" attitude of US inhabitants who file lawsuits for their own reckless actions. Corp Liability Lawyers drive this "no lower speed rating tires installed" policy.

Some here are posting how they would never drive that fast on snows, what about valets/family members/friends/repair techs. Just because YOU wouldn't do it is NO indication that the vehicle will never do it (with another driver).
I think it's due more to the Liars aka Lawyers that this country has become so litigious.
