    Well....I ordered 4 of these this morning with delivery due Saturday.
    WM raised the price $20 overnite from $119 to $139....wish I'd ordered them yesterday!

    I compared specs to tire referenced above, the only thing I saw different was the Walmart tire has 12/32nd tread depth & the DT tire above has 14/32nd tread depth.

    Tread comparison.....

    AT3 4S on top
    Walmart special on bottom

    Looks pretty damn close to me....
    I like the WM sidewalls better

    Direct Tire will still get some my business tho.....need me some new wheels. Hopefully the boys @ my local shop won't scream about bringing in my own tires...will they??

    Def check the date code on those tires when you get them. At the price they’re selling them for almost sounds too good. First time I’ve ever seen Walmart sell tires.. Walmarts here doesn’t sell tires..

    I did think about the date code to see if they're old production. Altho Walmart is all about avoiding liability in their dealings with tires I don't think that'll be an issue.

    Damn near every Walmart around here has an automotive department and they sell a lotta tires.

    Walmart has alotta exclusive Goodyear tires and since Cooper is now owned by Goodyear I figure they did these exclusive as well since the Discoverers A/T are so popular.

    Date code shows to be 3222

    32nd week of 2022 or August 8 - 14

    When I first made the post they were $119..... The day I decided to order them they went up to $139.... Could've saved $80 on a snap decision

    Yup... Me too
    Can't wait to get them on the truck & rid myself of them weak looking Firestones...

    Altho the Firestones will go on my 2012 Tacoma when I wear out the Yokohamas I put on last month.
