If i remember correctly, speed EVs are mostly there for common ice users which will exploit the 4x weak, particularly bulky waters. Ive been away for about 2 weeks so i might be wrong on that.

But yeah, this is a nice team. I'm not keen on Tar as a special wall though, since it lacks recovery and is banded, meaning you're going to be extremely reliant on switching. I'd invest in something a bit more reliable, or at least give Tar a more flexible moveset.

It's not meant to be a special wall (or at least I hope it isn't) I think it's able to survive Gengar's Focus Blast. And OHKO back with Crunch.

That seems like overkill when you could just sash it. Saving the loss in attack and speed, which it wants.

Chople Berry (or whatever Berry reduces Fighting attacks) would be better than Focus Sash. That way, you wouldn't have to worry nearly as much about sustaining light hits on Tar.

Yeah, I didn't even consider that. It just seems a waste to cripple a pokemon just to take out one threat.

Otherwise, it's good. I can see Deoxys giving you trouble.
