Had these tires for 2 years that came new on a used car I bought. The original owner put them on because they were cheap at Walmart. Since they came new on a used car I did not have high expectations for these Goodyear tires, but they surprised me. I only have about 5,000 miles on them and they are wearing well.
I have a lot of cars and are very careful of the tires I use and buy. Here's the good and the bad:
First they have no sidewall support or strength. Going into a hard turn they have very little support and bounce back on hard turns so they feel uncontrollable. Not a sports tire. If you park on the street with curbs like I do be careful not to rub against the curb. I have been parking at the same street curb for 20 years with various cars and tires and within a week I touched the curb and this tire popped. Very weak sidewall.
On the plus side they are quiet and roll down the road vibration free. They lack wet or dry grip as compared to any Michelin tire.
So if you mostly go straight and slow on highways this is a fine tire. Just be careful for any turns, potholes, curbs and especially in wet weather and you should be fine.

I drive in the mountains a lot and have to put on snow chains/cables on all season tires. Even the best all-season tires won't make it safely up/down the mountain without chains/cables when the roads are full of snow and some ice.
I don't have much expectations on these but I am almost certain they are better than these OEM Dunlop Enasave.
With 65 sidewall profile and H rating, one really shouldn't expect these to offer much in terms of performance. The Dunlop is 89S... On the flip side, stiffer sidewalls (typically higher speed rating) offer better performance but usually at the cost of ride comfort.

I never heard of Crossmax so might prefer Goodyear just slightly for name recognition. Honestly I wouldn't expect much difference between the two
If you do not drive a lot they are a decent economy tire.
But the Goodyear Outlast are also onsale in that size.

They are better and longer life tires.

That being said, this is a thread about the tires. Reliant tires are indeed made for Walmart exclusively. I put a different size (v-rated) on my old beater car and have been driving them for a while...they are "fine." You can certainly pay more for a better tire, but you can also pay more for an inferior tire. I'm not sure you can pay less for a better tire.
They are not high performance or track tires. If you want to throw a sporty vehicle through mountain twists and turns at high speed for fun on the regular you're not buying these. For everyday driving they are fine. They are certainly better than worn out tires you may be inclined to stick with because you can't afford new more expensive tires. I have found their wet and light snow traction to be adequate for all-season tires. I've had better tires but I paid more for them. If you take the appropriate precautions and make the appropriate changes to your driving habits for the weather they are OK.
If you need new tires and are financially challenged, the Goodyear Reliant are, in my opinion, a great option for most regular passenger cars. I can assure you you are better off driving these than staying on tires that are past the point that they should be replaced. If you can afford to pay more you can do better if you need it for your driving norms.
As far as Walmart installation services are concerned -- maybe I have a good locations near me but the tire work they've performed has been good, I've consistently had good results at a great price. The customer service side of the house on the other hand tends to be a bit chaotic -- understaffed, slow, and kind of all over the place -- but you're not paying for "white glove" level of service. Last time I was there my car was done for a new tire mount/balance in a little more than an hour after start of appointment time, which was swell but there was nobody at the auto desk when I came to pick it up and nobody showed up for nearly 40 minutes while a crowd of frustrated customers grew. So it took me about 2 hours and 20 minutes to get something done that should have taken maybe 1:15. In my limited experience, the earlier in the day you go, the less of a cluster you'll encounter. If you can get an appointment right when they open, they'll not have had much chance to go off the rails yet.
Based on experiences others have had...be a little anal and take a few seconds to do some quick checks when you get your car back -- make sure you got the right size tires, make sure all the lugs are on, make sure you got your wheel lock key back, etc.
And unless you are quite far from the store, go ahead and go back for your free 50-ish mile retorque. They apparently use skipping that as a lever to fight warranty claims. Go around when they open and they'll usually have you in and out in a few minutes.
