What's the problem with Uniroyal for Subaru?

I have a 2004 Subaru Forester P215/60 R16 94H, and it is time to replace all four tires.

Looking for a lower price tire I first spotted the Uniroyal Tiger Paw at my local BJs club. They are not cheap, but under $100 each. The tire "guy" says no for the Forester, if I want the Tiger Paw tires I'd have to sign a statement saying I understand the tires are not designed for my car. Checking the web, I find the Uniroyal web site agrees. What's up, the 94H too tough, and why do I need it?

Looking around it appears I can get a General Altimax for under $100 each and they are recommended for the Subaru.

Does the All Wheel Drive put special requirements on a tire? I've never in my long life been told a tire in the right size is not designed for my car, and the store doesn't want to sell them to me.
