Be aware that the Walmart tires sometimes look like regular name-brand
tires but if you check the sidewall numbers you find they are specially
made by that brand just for Walmart.

This probably doesn't matter to you... if you're driving so little that
your tires are dry-rotting before they wear out, and you're not going on
the highway or driving twisty country roads, you may well be fine with just
buying the cheapest possible tires.
