When you siep out to buy a tire nnd much as we hate
to do it, it's got to be done once in a while what do you
want?
Of course, you'd like to rub a lamp, or make a wish, or
have some jjood fairy appear, and slip a nice new tire
on the rim for nothing.
Hut, unfortunately, these-' things only happeiv in oitv
dreams. ', '. 1 '
What you want is a tire that will get you hack on the
road again and keep you going for a long, long time.
So, as long as you've got to buy a tire, you want some
thing good and you want it at the right price.
The next time you are , up against the sad necessity of.
buying: a tire call us up and we'll sell you a (Joodyear
and make you glad to buy' it.
