And Why They Are Exceptions
Worn Miller Tires are often exhibited with
some fign like above.
Countless letters also reach us telling sucn
mileage tales.
T"hp;p srp verv nleasinf. But we don't
" " - w -J I O -
want users in general to expect miracles from
Millers.
Service to Expect
Expect from Millers greater service than
from any like-type tire. And 19 times in 20
you will get it. j
Expect it to outserve
any tire you put opposite,
and it almost invariably
will. Expect twice the
mileage tires gave a few
years ago, and they will
doubtless do stiil better.
Expect tread wear 25
per cent better than from
others and you'll not be
disappointed.
But don't expect that Millers,
under all conditions, can match some
exceptional mileage.
Why Mileage Varies
A Cord Tire gives vastly greater
service than a Fabric Tire.
An oversize tire will vastly excel
a tire that is undersize. Care, load
and roads affect tire service greatly.
Millers are uniform tires. That is
a major reason for their supremacy.
But uniform tires will vary with
conditions.
Tread Patented
Center Tread smooth with suction cup,
for firm hold on wet asphalt. Geared-to-the
Road id treads, mesh like cogs in dirt.
With 3-Ton Loads
Mi'.Ier Cord Tire were tested by Ray C.
Carpenter on a 22-panenger bus. averaging
a 3-ton lead each tia. The first tire on a
rear wheel ran 23.700 miles without a blow-
out, and was nev? r rcmo ed from the wheel.
The s' ond was punctured by railroad spike
at 5.000 miles, but when repaired ran 12.000
mi!s more without a blowout. On a front
wheel the Miller ran 22,000 miles without a
blowout. Ail were pafsenger-typo tires.
What Our Tests Show
We run tires at our factory ten million
miles a year to make these service tests.
Thes-? are radical tests. Tires are run con
stantly, night ?nd day, aid under heavy load.
"We want quid: comparisons.
On our tesling machines Miller Cords
average 15,000 miles, and Fabrics about
half that.
But these are not mileage records. We
are running Miller Tires
against higli-grade rivals
to prove that Millers last
best.

Be Satisfied
With This
You will get on a Miller
an exceptional tread. It 13
by 25 per cent the best
tread made.
Not one Miller Tire,
made under present methods, has
ever come back with the tread gone.
You will get uniform tires. Every
Miller Tire is signed, both by maker
and inspector. Every man knows
that a faulty tire means a penalty for
him. And faults are extremely rare.
You will get greater mileage thin from
any tire you put on the opposite wheel
That is so nearly universal that we will
stake your favor on any single test.
But you will get the best tire built to
day. There are hundreds of thousands
who know that.
When you buy a new car insist on Miller
Tires. Twenty car makers now supply
them and there is no extra charge.
