I bought tires at WalMart, Goodyear something or another, and was the same exact tire you get from a GoodYear dealer, only $75 cheaper. A house brand may be inferior but a name brand and specific model has to be the same, unless you know something I don't know. Plus you get service with a smile. I have no problem getting tires at WM.
You may be able to get some tires there that you could anywhere else, however 90% of the tires they sell are cheaper because they are low grade tires. Im sure they can drop the price from buying bulk, thats how thier whole system works for the store. Just my opinion, i think they are cheap and I dont like cheaping on tires.
About the tires.. Most load range E tires are rated for around say 3000lbs. Thats 12,000 lbs total your tires can haul total, likely way above what you're going to be hauling -in the truck-. If you've got a 2500 and hauling a 3000lb pallet in the back of your bed then yea, i'd recommend you sticking it out with the E's. But if your truck is a grocery getter/ haul the kids and random crap around there is no need for them, way overkill unless you like them for other reasons which is totally fine. If you want to save the money and can do it safely by all means.
