Oversize Tires
In addition 10 this, Goodyear No-Rln-
Cut tires are 10 per cent oversize. This
is due 10 the method of fitting the tires
on any standard rim.
That means 10 per cent more air-l0
per cent greater carrying capacity
without any extra cost. And that, with
the average car, will add Is per cent to
the tire mileage.
This extra size takes care OF the extra
equipment. It avoids the blow-outs due

These two features together - No
Rim-Cut and oversize-cut the average
tire bills in two Our control OF these
features has made the Goodyear the
most popular tire that's sold.
After $50 900 of these tires have been
