mine had 16's as standard... But I replaced them with 18's. Ummm a quick look in the owners manual will tell you the OEM spec for tyres including speed rating. Hope that helps

Different brands an styles will have different speed ratings, you'd have to check that on your specific tyres...if not written on the tyre itself it possibly may be mentioned on the tyre brands website.

No matter what the rating is you can be fairly sure with modern tyres it would be higher than what your car can achieve :)

It most probably depends on which engine is fitted. It will be in the manual.

Which type of 18" are you using. I noticed that 16" go with 91H, and 17" go with 91V. Bu i have no clue which 15" or 18" are supposed to fit.
