Tire Care Means Mileage

Rubber tires have four natural
enemies-light heat oil and water.
Light and heat affect the rubber
chemically. Oil rots the rubber.
Air rotE the fabric.
Keep iron rust on the rims. as II
rots the canvas. Paint the rims
with shellac or graphite
Castings wear badly n wheels are
not parallel or n the steering con-
nections are loose
Careless driving is responsible for
tire trouble. Quick starts and stops
put too sudden strains on tires and
cause castings to wear
Skidding. especially turning cor
ners at high speed, destroys rubber
and fabric.
Brakes out OF adjustment make
one tire wear too much.
Bad cuts in castings should be vul-
canized.
Fill small cuts Immediately with
plastic filler
Carry spare castings and plenty OF
extra tubes.
Tire changes are unavoidable. but
roadside tire repairs are the mark
OF a novice.
