I wouldn't put a lot of stock in what the tire store guy says as he is trying to sell you what he can get. Order some more Carlisle Radial HD LRE through Walmart or get them put on my Discount tire. I order mine online and take them to an independent tire place for install. Only place I saw online that sold Freedom in 225/75R15 LRE was Tire Disounters and they were $20 more per tire than Walmart for Carlisle same size.

That is what I'm thinking, plus the Freedom's are a L speed rating, where the Carisle's are a M rating, and Walmart can have them here in a couple of days too.

Just bought one from wallys online a couple days ago and they shipped to my house via Fedex (I think) at no charge. I have my camper parked in the cul de sac about my house and found a piece of rebar that was probably originally used to mark property lines (was driven into the ground). Had the tire on hand in a couple days and didn't have to go to wallys (about 30 miles) to pick up.

If you ask a television salesman which tv to buy the'll tell you the one they have the most of in the storeroom is the model for you. Same with tires, whatever they can get their hands on is "the best tire for you".
