Anyone have higher rated tyres above ZR and Y.

Current available market tires are limited to 186mph (300kmh).Has anyone got higher rated one's fitted to their fully de-limited (in one way or another) M's that can go near 200mph just out of interest.

"When the Y-speed rating indicated in a service description is enclosed in parentheses, such as 285/35ZR19 (99Y), the top speed of the tire has been tested in excess of 186 mph, 300 km/h indicated"

There's plenty of (99Y) tires.

Yes I read that bit also but how MUCH higher than 186mph is the question.I know for a fact that the PS4S has been tested in excess of that and agree that on every M5 there is a tyre with 99Y,even going up to 103Y and maybe beyond.
