The Maximum Tire
Yet Price Reductions for Two Years Total 45%

Since the beginning there have been two
policies on tires. One has been to skinp tires
to make the price attractive. The other has been
to secure lowest cost per mile.
Goodyear started many years ago to build the
best tire possible. We went to extremes. We
created a department Of experts-costing 100000
yearly-iust to Gnd ways to build tires better.
W. created the Fortified Tire.
That means a tire protected against trouble in
FIVE exclusive ways.
These features were costly. For a long time,
these Fortified Tires cost users one-hfth more
than other standard tires.
The gazette-times. [volume] (Heppner, Or.) 1912-1925, 1915-04-08
Tires Never Skirnped

Yet never in one item have we skimped these
tires. Every year something has been added. And
we still are spending 100000 yearly to find ways
to better them.
They still excel in these ways:
In our No-Rim.C Cut feature. In Our OMAR
cure, which saves countless blowouts. That alone
costs us $500 daily.
We form in each tire hundreds Of large rubber
rivets to combat loose treads. In each tire base
we ~vulcanize 126 braided piano wires to make
the tires secure.
