Walmart is for the average consumer....and jeeps aren't. It's no surprise they can't or won't handle them. You don't want someone who isn't trained to work on big tires and jeeps working on it anyway, no matter the cost.

I feel your pain.
Discount Tire refused to do mine.
And I bought the tires there.
And they were almost an hour away.
It was really a pain.
I still like Discount Tire though for their prices and warranty.
As for walmart, I don't think there's much I'd trust to their automotive dept, and I know the people there.
I did let them do a wheel swap once, but they only charged like 10, and no one else local was open on Sunday.

x3000 for Discount Tire. I have had nothing but positive experiences with them. I took my wife's car with a nail in the tire to my local Discount tire and they fixed it for free. We didn't even buy the tires there. I will do business with them from now on though.

Amen!
It's also funny because my youngest son looks like the local Discount tire manager.

JK Freedom,
Yuck! I would never bring my Jeep to Wal-mart as I learned the hard way with another vehicle. I had my tires rotated and oil changed on my chevy van. Well they put the wrong weight oil in which messed up my oil meter and they stripped two of the nuts on two of the tires
Never again thank you
