One only needs to look at the speed rating on the tires of your trailer and the tires on your TV.
My TV tires are rated at 120MPH. I often drive at speeds up to 80MPH (about 2/3 of the rated speed). I never drive at the rated speed of 120.
My trailer tires are rate at 65MPH. I often drive at 60 or about 90% of the rated speed. I just don't think that it's wise to expect more out of my tires than the manufacturer does. History shows that tire manufacturers often over-rate their tires as it is.
I don't think that a discussion about stopping at those speeds is even worth while. It suffices to say that an emergency stop with an Explorer at 85MPH can be iffy at best, without a tow. With a tow, it could be fatal.
