just a normal teen badram. think they know it all. i was that way a couple years ago, but when my daughter was born i smartened up.

Exactly...

BTW bardram, those are expensive goodyears made exclusively for Walmart! , and goodyear does make a m/t tire, but it is all equally crappy.

Thanks for telling me I over paid, and actually got a/t tires instead of m/t's. I guess I shoulda asked you guys first.
But then again its my money.
Dude, don't be afraid to ask around for opinions and help. That is what we are here for. But if your gonna let your ego and pride get in the way, don't bother.

I look forward to hearing about how in less than 20,000 miles that you need a new set of tires. Honestly. Been there, done that. Bought an older gen set of tires to yours and I just barely got 20,000 out of them. Then again, I didn't pay $800 with a job killing $65 tip. The one person that posted about how that's a no no for any walmart employee is 100% correct in that regard.

Really though, not knocking you, but after some of your other threads, I can't say that I'm overly surprised. This site is a resource, and had you used it, you wouldn't have gotten bent over the tire racks without an ounce of lube.


Learn it the hard way- Walmart doesn't carry a "good" tire.

i think he should go back to walmart and return the tires and get different ones. i also think he should go there and ask for the kids number that he got fired for tipping him and apologize. i used to work at walmart, ive seen it happen. i feel for the guy that lost his job. ive been unemployed for 3 months now and still cannot find a job. this economy sucks.
