Some prefer the help of an Auto Care Center expert, so Walmart also launched a new interactive shopping experience on Walmart.com called Walmart Tire Finder. It allows customers to virtually interact with a Walmart Auto Care Center expert, who helps guide you through the tire buying process based on your driving environment, warranty, and budget preferences.

“We know selecting tires can be complicated, so we’ve made the intimidating process easy,” said Jon Freshman, vice president of digital services at Walmart U.S. “We’re giving our customers convenient digital options that bring our auto care center expertise right to their fingertips, helping them make smart decisions from anywhere. This is the latest example of Walmart removing pain points to create a simple experience that puts our customers at the center.”
