    Why does continental rate these tires as 75 MPH?
    I have the HSR2 in 255/70

    Because they are trying to limit their liability. If you blow a tire at 77 mph, wreck and kill people.
    They can point to the tire and all their documentation that says max speed 75 mph for X period of time. You exceed the speed the tire was rated for. You go to jail, because you were negligent.
