I believe it's 105. I had them running between 90 and 110 for I guess 13hrs straight between San Diego and El Paso a while back. Tread separation seems like it would happen if speed were a factor.
I actually rotated them two weeks ago and checked them all out when I did. It's gotta be a defect in my mind. Unless the tire monster jumped out and stabbed them while I was driving

Judging from your driving characteristics I now think it is totally related to the speed rating of the tire and the tire not being designed for the application it is being submitted to. The speed rating is not so much about how fast you are moving causing the tire to fall apart. It is about the heat generated and sustained by the tire from moving that fast. Again, this is affected by unlimited variables and unique to each application which the tire is used and could cause the actual rating to be lower. The speed rating should be a maximum. Over exposure creates defects and continued over exposure ensures failure.
I would still contact Mikey Thompson and see if they would replace it since it could have been a bad tire. Either way I would replace the other 3 since they are now suspect considering the conditions they have been operated in. Lastly, I would seriously consider changing the negligent way you operate your vehicle while on public roads.
