Yes, most Walmart Auto Care Centers will mount and balance tires that you bring in, even if you didn't buy the tires from them. This service is part of their "BYOT" (Bring Your Own Tires) offering. However, there are important conditions. The store must have an Auto Care Center (not all do), and the tires must be new and in suitable condition for your vehicle. They will not install used tires you bring in due to liability concerns. The cost is typically around $15 per tire for mounting and balancing, which is generally very competitive.

Before you go, it's crucial to call your local Walmart Auto Care Center to confirm they offer the BYOT service and to schedule an appointment. Walk-ins are accepted, but you'll likely face a long wait without an appointment. The technicians will need to inspect the tires to ensure they are the correct size, speed rating, and load index for your car. They will also check the manufacturing date; tires older than a few years may be declined for safety reasons. The entire process, once the car is in the bay, usually takes about an hour for a standard set of four tires.

You bet. I've done this myself. Just bought tires online and took them to my local Walmart. They slapped them on for about fifteen bucks a tire. The key is to definitely call ahead. Not every Walmart has the auto shop, and you don't want to be stuck with four tires in your trunk for nothing. It’s a solid money-saving move if you find a good deal on tires elsewhere.

As a rule, they do, but with strict limits. The tires must be brand new. They won't touch used tires for liability reasons. You also need to ensure the tires are a perfect match for your vehicle's specifications. The price is reasonable, but always factor in additional costs like new valve stems and disposal fees. Planning is essential—schedule an appointment online or by phone to avoid a multi-hour wait.

What Are Vehicle Emission Standards?

Vehicle emission standards refer to the regulations on the content of harmful gases emitted from automobile exhaust, such as CO (carbon monoxide), HC plus NOx (hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxides), and PM (particulate matter, soot). With the increasing severity of automobile exhaust pollution, countries around the world have established corresponding regulatory systems for vehicle emissions, promoting advancements in emission control technologies through stringent regulations. To curb the generation of harmful gases from vehicles and encourage manufacturers to improve their products to reduce these emissions at the source, both Europe and the United States have formulated relevant vehicle emission standards. The European standards, in particular, serve as a reference for China's vehicle emission standards, and domestically produced new vehicles are required to indicate the European emission standards their engines meet.

Is it okay to start the car if it hasn't been driven for half a month?

It is okay to start the car if it hasn't been driven for half a month, but after starting, do not let the car idle in place. Instead, put it in gear and drive the car for a distance, which has many benefits. It is recommended to drive at least 20 meters after starting the engine. If a car remains stationary for a long time, the tires will be in contact with the ground at a single point for an extended period, which can easily cause flat spots on the tire surface and reduce the tire's lifespan. Regularly starting the engine and driving the car for a distance can prevent the tires from staying in contact with the ground at one point for too long, thus avoiding flat spots. After turning off and locking the car, some systems continue to operate, causing the battery to discharge continuously. If the car is not driven for an extended period, the battery may become depleted. Therefore, regularly starting the engine to allow the alternator to recharge the battery can extend the battery's lifespan.
