Default Does walmart not want my business?

I went to walmart yesterday to get tires and they tell me i have to get H rated tires. Wtf? its a 94 civic. Why do i need H rated tires? They don't carry them in my size, and they won't put on different size tires for me. The lady at the register literally told me we will not touch your car. I ended up going to the local goodyear and getting all 4 H rated tires for $226.30 with a decent road warranty. /rant.

haha, funny. i did it this way. asked if i brought my car in can i get this size tire? they answered no, because they only do stock replacement sizes to adhere to safety regulations. but i asked what if i just bring the rims? then he said you can do what ever you want since the vehicle is unknown. guess what i did

Thats what you have to do now if you go to any big retailer like that, fleet farm, sams, its all the same, insurance purposes.
