Schwinn does not list this model on their website so I assume it is a model they make for Walmart. The OP will have to inspect the bike himself to see if wider tires fit, I think you are right about Walmart associates though there could be exceptions. You can also ask this question on the Walmart web site. Good luck with that!
Of course if $230 is the approximate budget the OP won't find the Marin Lombard I suggested to be a viable option.
