What kind of car is that under the car port?
The stripes make me think its a mopar.
A dart maybe?

Budke · **Posted:** Fri Aug 07, 2009 5:09 pm

Only ones I have seen at Wally World were the Goodyear Wrangler Authoritys, which were similar.

Not too sure what your 'definition' of similar is.

1. Having a likeness or resemblance, esp. in a general way

Not exact, but yes they are similar.

i found the authority's in a wal-mart by me. for 32"/ 12.5/ 16 they were $120/tire . that includes mounting and balancing there.

it was one of them super wal-marts. not like every other wal mart is super

They look similar to the MT/R's in the same way that the Wrangler Silent Armors look similar to the Denman Ground Hawg...
