Speed Rating on tires

I was shopping online for tires and after I made my selection I was given an alert that while the tire is available for purchase it is below the speed rating
of my car (1999 c280 Sport Package). The tire I selected had a T rating.
Should I be concerned about speed rating? I seldom access the highways.

It's good up to 118 miles an hour with a T rating.
Unless your a bit nuts, or trying to outrun the police I doubt you will ever go that fast.
