If the type approval/car sticker lists more than one dimension than the load and speed index must be at least the one given for a particular dimension.

Except for winter tires where you can as low as 160 km/h (Q). But no exception with put further exception: In Italy during the summer months the speed index a winter tire must be at least the one given in the type approval/car sticker.
