Really? I would think a Michelin was a Michelin. Do they provide a
lower spec tire specifically for Wal Mart?
Michelin makes dozens and dozens of different tires. They are all
Michelin tires. They are NOT all equal. A particular Michelin tire with
a particular name and DOT rating will be the same at ANY dealer. If the
dealer (Wal-Mart or any other dealer) is selling a tire made to a
different specification, it will have a different rating and name!
