If I was a large corporation, I'd do what Walmart does, too. You gotta protect yourself from stupid.

Why is this funny? Perhaps I am missunderstanding your post, but sidewall stiffness is an issue for comfort and handling.

I think I posted it here but ...

Long story short, I had a 3 hour standoff at walmart. They got my car in the air and held me hostage because I had 185-65-15 tires on it instead of 195-60-15 ...

I had a set of 195-60-15 in the trunk that I wanted put on.

My god, you thought I had robbed the place. They ended up threatening to fire the guy if he didn't put the wheels on my car.
