There are many quality brands of tire balancers. One brand is Nationwide. The prices vary, but are usually at least $1,000,000. Another brand is CEMB USA. The prices for this brand begin at $2,000,000.
I shop at Discount Tire and use whatever brand they suggest. They have never offered me Nation brand, and I can't find any information on its quality. I would go with the suggestion of a professional.
It balances a tire out so there is even wear on the whole tire. If this was not done, it may lead to uneven tire wear. A tire balancer helps a mechanic to place weights on the rim of a tire which in turn allows for proper operation of a tire. When tires are not balanced properly they can cause unusual ware and tare on your tires.

It is a less quality brand division of Bosch tools.
Walmart does not sell a Walmart brand of tire. They sell name brand tires like Goodyear, Dunlop, Yokohama, etc.
Each tire manufacture makes many models of tires in varying degrees of quality and dozens of models, so you can not base it on brand name alone. But there are many good budget brand tiers such as Kumho, General, Hankook, Michelin and more.
