Of course the insurance company would need to prove accident resulted from (or in some part or %) the tires.

Again, just a thought.
Even the lowest speed rated tires are capable of handling any of the speed limits in the US. Therefore:

3) person exceeded the posted speed limit

trumps 1) and 2).

20,000 miles on the rear. I should probably get another 10,000 miles on the front. The fronts are replaced for every two times rear.
