Would the card count towards 5/24?
5/24 counts all bank cards that show up on your credit report with an "opened on" date of 5/24.

The Discount Tire credit card is issued by Synchrony Bank, so it will count as a bank card, and it's a personal card, so yes it will count toward 5/24.

The only retail/store cards that 5/24 might not count is those that are not bank cards. Retail/store cards and bank cards are not opposites of each other, there's a lot of overlap. Anyone who tried to explain 5/24 as it they were opposites of each other (by simply claiming that retail/store cards "don't count") is getting it wrong.
