Default Any Walmart (Union City) tire mounting exp?

Does anyone have any experience with Union City Walmart mounting their tires? I can't find a better price than Walmart, basically $8.5 for mount and balance for each tire.

The next place is San Leandro Honda, they charge $18 for a wheel. So it's about 2x the Walmart price, but this place I heard they do good work. (no scratch or nicks on wheels, etc).

So any feedback on Walmart? I used to go to Auto Innovation, but they are a bit far.

TIA!!

Yea i went to the walmart in union city once for an oil change. those guys are idiots. Almost stripped off bolts that hold on to the plastic shield under the car. I would go to a special shop because I wouldn't be surprise if those guys scratch up ure car.

Please don't go to Wal-Mart for any auto work!

Your next post may be "Wal-Mart F'ed-up my wheels, what are my options"

Yeah, usually you get what you paid for. Actually $18 a wheel is pretty cheap too if you ask me. At least with SLHonda, if they mess up my wheels, I can probably get compensated for, whereas it might be a little tougher at Walmart.
