Savings of $128 is $80 for the tires, $48 for the labor... Which comes out to $12 a tire. Since it's $17 for lifetime balancing and rotation (now) , you'd pay the $5 balance x 4 to get it to $68 total for labor.
You can also pay $10 x 4 for road hazard, but IMO, when tires are this cheap (for my car at least), it almost isn't worth it... Just get a new tire for that $40.
If you get goodyear brand tires, goodyear stores will fix your flats for free even if you didn't buy it from them... That's usually the bulk of the road hazard coverage that I acrually use.
I have the reliants on my '13 prius... No issues at all. Very thick tread depth even after a year, and though my car isn't a hotrod by any measure, these have worked great through all types of weather. Haven't tested them in the winter as I switch to winter every January.
UPDATE: The banner which was shared multiple times in this thread clearly shows free install and balance. I had a chat with Walmart, and they stated it is a free one-time balance with the installation. If I wanted lifetime balance, then I must pay extra. I contacted my local Walmart, and they confirmed this, and said they are doing free installs and one time balance up to and including Sunday November 27th.
Click the link below and look at post #342 for a screenshot showing free install and balance if you have a problem at the Walmart installation center.

If your time is valuable maybe don't go to Walmart for tires.

So is the mount and balance total $128 (meaning the $20 saved per tire is separate)?Or I'm assuming the $80 saved on the 4 tires is included in the $128 total savings? But if this is correct, then how is it free mount and balance if the mount and balance costs $17 per tire (excluding road hazard)?I can't possibly come up with matching numbers that are both free install AND $128 off. Something's not right here, and I'm leaning toward the OP's "free install and balance" is incorrect.
I'm thinking it should read "$20 off per tire with $5 installation/balance."Edit: It looks like the correct answer is the way the banner is worded. So the 4 tires will be the non-sale price, plus mount and balance at $17 per tire (so in my case $89 x 4 plus $17 x 4 = $424), minus $128 total for the promo = $296 plus tax.
If this is correct, which I believe it is, the OP needs to remove "free mount and balance" from the verbage of this deal. It should read "Select Goodyear & Cooper tires - $128 off a set of 4 with install/balance."
