if you are talking tire speed rating, then Z is a tire rated top speed IN EXCESS of 149mph...depending on the modifier (aka Service description) it could rate as high as 190mph.

It's a new type of porn even freakier than XXX. It started in Germany after consumers complained that bondage films were pushing boundaries of decency.

Just kidding...

Very high MPH, they resist heat build up, are standard equipment on GT's, and very expensive to replace, they last 20,000 miles, at 25,000 miles they become "slicks"

they are standard on the GT's? I am wondering if my tires are z-rated...i have the pony package which should mean i have the GT wheels? i am not too sure if that is completely true though, i get the feeling that it is possible that i have just the GT rims. right now i have the pirelli p-zero neros

I believe the Perelli's are W-Rated. Meaning like 168mph.
