Tire ratings for 940 non-turbo sedan 900 1992

Hi,
I've got a '92 940 sedan, no turbo and need to replace a couple of tires on it. Current tires are all H rated, which I think is Volvo's recommendation. On my 240's, I've been using S or T rated tires. Is the H rating necessary on the 940? I'm a pretty sedate driver- normal city and highway driving with a max on the highway of 75 or so. I can't imagine this car pushing past the 112 or 118 mph rating of the S and T tires.

Are the H tires necessary? Any problems having H on one axle and a lower rating on the other?

Thanks!
Lyle
