Dangerous Tire Economy.

DdukcIOuS ECOuOIuy.
Do motorists realize the danger Of
ing worn and weakened tries on the
front wheels of their machines? This
question was recently asked and
pretty we'll answered by Mr.. Claus
Spreckels, secretary Of the Savage
Tire company of San Diego, few
Gays ago.
Mr.. Spreckels has made a careful
study Of tire construction since his
connection with the Savage Tire Co.
Ee has also had years of experience
aS a driver and user of automobiles,
sc his opinion should have consider
allie weight. The common practice is
to place new tires on the rear wheels,
then after they have gone few thou
sand miles and begin to show signs
cf wear, to move them 10 the frcnt
wheels. Almost without exception
the newest and strongest tires are
found on the rear wheels of machines.
Any motorist knows the danger OF
q blowout on the front wheel of car.
Very little trouble is caused by a
blowout on rear wheel and there is
practically no danger at all from
such an occurrence. Many cars have
gone over embankments and the lives
OF many motorists and pedestrians
have been jeopardized by the blowing
cut OF tires on the front wheels OF
: cars. II a car is being driven at any
speed when such an accident occurs,
the chances are that the driver vii!
lose control of it and serious and fre-
cuently fatal accidents follow.
Mr.. Spreckels went on to say that
ir is we'll understood that motorists
can obtain little more mileage by
putting weakened tires on the front
wheels of their cars, but that they
are paying very dearly for this mile
age, when they consider that they
ale flirting with serious danger by
following such practice. His ad-
vice is to use the tires first on the
front wheels until they show signs OF
wear, then transfer them to the rear
wheels and have them finish their
lives there, where if they blow out,
no serious trouble will be caused.
