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.

As said earlier, wonder if I get the tire shipped to me, then take to store, would they honor their alleged Free Installation when they have time and can see my receipt of buying in the eligible time for free installation., or all is part of Greed/Laziness syndrome and simple rejection calling no scheduling time!
Never had such an experience in Costco before and wish they would price match or had these tires in their shop.
Keep the receipt. Contact Walmart (1-800-925-6278) and ask for a refund of the install and balance fees. If Walmart say NO, then tell the CSR that you will file a dispute with the credit card company. Use AMEX if possible. 100% protection if you provide good documentation of the problem.
I can help check the tire balance and suspension wear since you are local. Get a digital tire gauge to check tire pressure. Do not trust the gauge found at gas station.
Do I dispute or is this a valid charge?

4 X $2(lifetime balance upgrade )
4 x $3 ( apparently tpms valve stems?)
I thought I was only supposed to pay $8
Not $20
The sealed battery inside the sensor is good for about 8 years. When the battery goes out, you'll see the warning light on the dash.

As a second try, I reached them on phone and finally explaining the situation for couple of times, they refunded me $36 for 3 tires and immediately it was reflected on my card. Hope this helps .

The valve stem is a weird one...esp as so many cars have TPMS, they aint replacing that whole module...so WTF did they do? Did they add a service pack? (gaskets, etc)
