Looking at getting De-limit for my E60 M5, car has bridgestone RE-001 Y rated tyres. Are these ok for 200mph stuff?

TIA

It's actually slightly worrying, as 300kmh is a fair bit short of what the beast will do " in theory" but I'm not sure a blow out would be expected at 200mph, not likely to be maintain that speed for long.

Anyone know what the next speed rating would be past "Y"
