I asked my dad - who worked at B.F.Goodrich. If they use the correct patch and procedure - the speed rating is not compromised. The biggest problem is water infiltration

I asked my dad - who worked at B.F.Goodrich. If they use the correct patch and procedure - the speed rating is not compromised. The biggest problem is water infiltration of the steel inside the tire belts.

He also mentioned that an under-inflated a tire has a compromised speed rating.
