From the website linked below... what "SL" means on a farm tire...

"Since time is money for business these days, the agricultural
industry wanted to transport implements from dealer to farm and
from field to field at a faster rate. Standard implement tires had an
"SL"suffix to the basic size (such as 11L-15SL). The "SL" meant
service limited to agriculture and was limited to 25 mph transport
speed. Going to higher speeds required qualification to the same
regulations that govern highway tires. To handle this need, a new
classification of implement tire was developed. The "FI" suffix
denotes the highway speed qualified implement tires can be used to
transport implements. Even though the transport speed is less than the
load rating on the "SL" tires, the in-field load capacity of the tires
actually exceeds the in-field capacity of the "SL" tires. These new
"FI" tires, such as "F1" 11L-15FI, offer you great opportunity to
improve the time efficiency of your operation. "
