AUTO STEEL WHEELS.
Almost Indestructible. Says EXPO
nent of Motor Trucks

One of the leading American expo-
nents of steel wheels for motor trucks
Of the heavy duty type has realized inn
portant advantages with this equipment
In Europe steel wheels are In almost
universal use. and there. as in this coun-
try, they are widely appreciated for a
number of reasons other than the mere
eiffrssnation of wood. Seven years OF
service by certain American truck with
steel equipment proved that tire econ
omy Is carried to its utmost limit by en-
ploying large diameter wheels of special
steel and combining their. use with a
proper load distribution I'm regard to the
front and rear axles. Then follow some
of the points urged IN favor of steel
truck wheels.
Steel wheels are not only indestructible
but they are turned up in a lathe, 50 that
their circumference is absolutely true
and their diameter is unvarying no mat
ter what weather conditions may be-
Consequently the solid rubber tires are
not subjected to ruinous contraction and
expansion which takes place in wood
wheels in extreme weather. Steel wheels
also act as conductors of heat which
prevents the tires from becoming over
hea ted--a condition which rapidly deteri-
crates them.
