Yup, if the car came with the 100a package then you got 18" wheels and W- rated tires.

Regardless of the tires now being 18s standard. For 2015 models with the same 18s, there was a 121mph speed limiter. So if you can prove that now non pp cars have the same speed limiter as pp that would be a pretty major change that nobody knows about

15 DIB 6MT base Ecoboost
When I picked up my base non pp eco from the port (17' s With those horrible H rated Hankooks ) It cut me off at 146. At first I assumed that either I got a PP tune by mistake at the factory or that since mine was a special order from Military Auto Sales with delivery to Germany someone had the sense to give me a higher limit. It now seems like most ECOs got the pp tune regardless of tire. I flashed the Cobb 93 stage 1 tune the morning after I got the car. 146mph just doesn't cut it on the Autobahn. Now that I have my new rims and tires, full bolt-ons and custom tune I will be shooting for 300+kph (186+) I was only 18 kph (11mph) short on my last run :D

Does your speedometer only go up to 160? I know you said you've done 175, but my speedo only goes up to 160...just wondering how you read your speed above that ;)

Just multiply KPH by 0.62 to get MPH

I so wish we had an autobahn in the states but American drivers are just terrible.
