Why Rubber Tires Grow Hot.

Why Rubber Tires Grow Hot.
 When. an automobile is running at high speed the rubber tires are rapidly warmed, and the heat sometimes be comes very great, with resultant in jury to the rubber. The cause of this accumulation of heat in the tire is ascribed to the kneading of the rubber, which generates heat faster. than it can be radiated away. For this reason manufacturers have found it to be an advantage to have metal parts in the tread, such as the ends of rivets, in contact with the tire, because the metal being good radiator, helps to carry off the heat of the outer air.
