That sounds like your body had shifted just a tad. They probably would've
been at the limit if it were straight and rubbed both sides.

Walmart has a tendency to pressure manufacturers to give them products at
super low prices. Many choose to actually make a modified product to give
them instead. There are many things that seem to be the same but are
actually different SKUs then other retail stores, for even the same named
product. BFG Land Terrains are the cheapened Walmart version of the AT KO.
They look very similar and may be identical, but it prevents the
'competition' of Walmart against 'real' tire centers that carry the AT KO.
FYI I got my 31x10.50 AT KO set at NTB for about the sme money...but I got
only 4 not 5 and I also have the best warranty package they have.
