Mechanics Question - How to spread speed EVs for tailwind team?

Hi everyone! I am currently playing/building a team with talonflame as tailwind setter. My current thought process was to EV all Pokemon on my team in max speed in case of (common) mirror tailwind matchups. I am however considering a slightly less Speedy and more bulky team but I have no clue on how much I can lower the speed without affecting my strategy too much.

Can anyone assist me in my thought process?

The Pokemon I am using are:

Talonflame, weavile, lucario, garchomp, rotom wash and dragapult.

Ev spreads are all maxed atk or sp ark and Max speed based on the type of Pokemon and left over in hp.

Thanks everyone:)

Small addition to original post: I actually put a lot of thought into this team not knowing if it would actually function well. In a theoretical sense it is designed to be able to hit every Pokemon currently in Champions for super effective with STAB. Turns out after a lot of information gathering and processing this is possible by having any combination of Pokemon in your team with at least these 11 types: dragon, steel, fighting, fire, flying, dark, ice, electric, water, ghost, ground. which leaves 1 left over if running a team of 6.

Wondering if anyone has ever tried this before and if they can come up with better teams based on this concept.
