' Main ai If you desire a Low-Priced Tire, look at Goodyear PATHFINDERS v "Three-Point Traction" is mighty important 1 It's ono of tho big; reaons why "More peoplo ride on Good years than any other tires." Here's what "Three-Point Traction" means: (1) Stopping: and starting traction because Of the sharp-edge diamonds DOWN THE CENTER instead of sliok "sled-runner'? ribs that only slip, slide and spin in mud. . ' (2) CUEVE TRACTION becauso of the" All-' Weather diamonds on tho edges that GRIP when your tires shift sidewayS on turns. 1 (3) RUT TRACTION because those sanra dia monds extend far up both side walls. Think, beforeyou buy tires, how often you need this "Three-Point Tracftjan." You've noticed how other tires slip, skid, don't hold the road like the fa mous All-Weather. Now you know why. Tho All Weather Tread easily adds DOLLARS OF SAFETY to a tire yet it etts you nothing extra,. , There's a Goodyear Quality Tube for evofy size, type and priced Goodyear Tire.
