The only way to counteract friction and heat is by Gum- Dipping, the Firestone patented process which soaks the cords in liquid rubber, saturating and coating each tiny cotton fiber and strand within the cord, counteracting friction and heat at their very source. As a result of this patented process, Firestone Tires run up to 28° cooler than tires built without Gum-Dipped Cords. This is why Firestone Tires are used by thousands and thousands of truck operators from coast to coast, including the largest transportation fleets. These operators choose tires strictly on performance... they know that Firestone Tires give them more dependable service at lowest cost per mile.
