Fastest I could ever go was 86. it was buried a lot earlier since it's not calib. 4 my tires but my bud who I was pretty much drafting off of had his cruise at 86. That's with 33's though. I could prolly get passed 90-95 with my 31's even though the tire is rated for 85 max

The xj starts to shake after 90-95... got to 100 but decided I should probably back it down....
