Hi,
That's probably a little extreme. I doubt this would happen with a name brand 'H' or 'V' rated Tire. The same could be said for using non 'N' rated Tires, non-OEM Wheels and Brakes, Intake Mods, De-snorkeling, and on and on.
If the insurance company is going to deny the claim, they'll do so and force you to litigate it for any number of reasons.
There are a number of owners using non-performance or non-spec tires with no reported ill effects...
Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
