once in a while yon hear a man say
3j off-hand: "AH tires are about alike."
This is worse than a careless statement; in total
effect it is the costliest error in tire-buying. .
The plain truth w and it cannot be made loo
emphatic all tires are NOT alike !
The leading manufacturers of motor cars know
ii so they use more Goodyear Tires for origi
nal equipment than any other kind.
The cost-wary owners of the great truck fleets
of industry know it so in simple economy
they use more Goodyear Tires than any other
kind.
The purchasing experts, of the urban, interur
ban and transcontinental bus lines know it
so for safe and profitqble. operation they use
more Goodyear Tires than any other kind.
The rank and file of informed motor car own
ers throughout the world know it so "more
people ride on Goodyear Tires than on any
other kind." ,
lTO, EMPHATICALLY NO, all tires are,
JL NOT alike. Don't be talked into thinking
they are. Remember the facts about Goodyear.
Get a Goodyear Tire and you get the best, and,
since it costs you little if anything more .than
any other, you get the greatest tire value money
can buy.
