Default 195 65 15 on a 15x3.75 rim? 91H speed rating enough?

Would these tires work on that size rim? Would i have an issue? i was looking at these tires because they claim to have an H or V speed rating. Max load for them is 1356 lbs. If not what SHOULD i be looking for?

Everyone else seems to be running 165/80s with a worse speed rating and same height. Just looking to see if Anyone has ran this tire or something similar and has had actual hands on experiences. Not interested in opinions. Thanks though.

I have ran the nexens on my 15x3.5 fronts,imo they have been great on my car,now lets get one thing straight though,my car is mostly just a cruiser,only will do a few highway pulls every now and then,if your going to be doing some high speed pulls,etc i would pay for a good tire,i even dd on my nexens 1000 miles a week through the summer,all highway and it was more than fine,just know cheap skinnys is not my opinion of a performance tire,its all up to you man,you have read the threads,seen pics of wrecks etc but for what i do they work just fine for me,and at 51 each at wal mart they work for me

Thanks. Yeah i will mostly be doing city driving, and if anything ill be getting up to like 80ish on the highway? Its hit or miss i hear though, some dudes have random blow outs at like 80 some dudes do 140mph pulls without any issues, im just looking to see if the speed rating listed helps becuase the tires these guys are talking about are rated for like 80-100mph lol.

Also i have alot of weight taken off my front end,but really i have read the same crap,we have 2 guys around that also run those nexens and have good luck,they push theres alot harder than i ever do mine,imo really pending on what wheels you have you can always run a 17x7,and fit a tire for better dd and have a wider setup,i will never tell anyone its a good idea to dd with skinnys,i had alot of close calls just by running that wheel setup,braking is impaired, but as long as your careful you should be fine,but still theres a risk,and if its a dd just know thats not the best setup,i just had no other choice at the time i was broke lol

lol im in the same position as you, i can get these two for less than the price of one sportsman. Already ordered the wheels so lol yeah, can't do anything about that. I don't mind it though the car doesn't get driven hard unless im out in a long lonely straight stretch of road. Thanks for chiming in though.
