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.

That's 80 to 100 bucks right there. I'm not gonna have them shipped to my house and then pay to have them installed and I have to drag them back to store.. either they will fix it soon or, I will forget I was ever even invested.

I haven't dealt with Walmart Tire in 4 years, but the one near me didn't allow appointments. You would show up in a line of people right before they open and pile in and then wait. It could be hours before they call you over the loudspeaker. This might all be different now.
Also if they break a wheel stud, they have to tow it to another place to have fixed. They wont let you drive it or even tow your self if this happens. Liability issue. Jeep wheel stud broke during their install and I didnt even know it, but they were already having it towed to a Farm and Fleet to have it fixed. Luckily it didnt cost much but I had to get a ride home from a friend, then come back the next day cause Farm and Fleet closed for the day when the stud broke.
Im still going to check this deal out though. Thanks OP.
So I guess it is wait and see. Maybe they will provide updated info before tires arrive. Tires are scheduled to arrive Friday. Worst case, I will install them in my garage with my HF tire changer and HF wheel balance.

Just to be on the safe side, I got a Screen Shot of the promotion that says "Save $128 on 4 tires, install & balance On select Goodyear & Cooper tires."
I buy all my tires from walmart and I haven't had any problems in the past.
