Default Stupid question about tires

Okay, maybe I'm dumb, but what kind of tires do our Z's come with? Are they Z-rated? The V-Spec Sentras come with Z rated, so I'd certainly think the Z's would (not too mention they'd be alphabetically appropiate as well...) but I can't tell looking at the sidewalls. Anyone?

Bonus question I also don't know the answer to: Z-rated tires are for speeds over 100 MPH, right? Are there any higher rated tires, such as 150+? Thanks!
