CAR DEALER HAS
DOPE ON HOW TO
CONSERVE TIRES

With the present high prices of
rubber, tires are considerable
item in the running expenses of an
automobile. A little thought will
add to the life of your tires. Here
are few precautions given by Ray
c. Roberts, local Buick dealer, which
will well repay the effor: by the
extra mileage gained
Avoid sudden stops. DO not let
the tires slide along the pavement.
Avoid sharp turns. Take corners
slowly
Don't bruise a tire by running in
to curb or other obstruction.
Don t scrapc the tires by running
too close to Il curb.
Keep out of ear tracks and deep
ruts
Repair cuts and worn spots
promptly.
Keep tires properly inflated.
Under or overinflation is very in
furious to a tire. Consult schedule
supplied with your car. If this is
not available any dealer will gladly
give you accurate information.
Any care that reduces Jar or sud
den shocks ON tires will lcngthcn
the life of the tire.
An excellent example of how sue
ecssful engineers have been in this
regard is found in mechanical four
wheel brakes. This remarkable ad-
vance i'll automobile construction
which was pioneered by Buick in
America, adds greatly to the plea
sure and comfort of driving. But
in addition to that it distributes
wear over four tires instead of two
and thus lengthcns the life of all
the tires
