Why Buy a Tire Without the Manufacturer's Name and Guarantee When You Can Get a Firestone Tire of Better Quality with Firestone Name and Guarantee At No Higher Price

Tires may look alike on the outside, but on the inside where blowouts start, they are different. Firestone Tires are made blowout-proof by Gum-Dipping, a patented extra process which soaks every cotton cord and insulates every strand with pure liquid rubber. In fact, every 100 pounds of cotton cords absorb eight additional pounds of liquid rubber. This special process prevents internal friction and heat, the main cause of blowouts. No other make of tire is Gum-Dipped.

The make of the tires you buy for your car becomes a matter of vital importance when you realize that 43,000 accidents in 1934 were caused by blowouts, punctures and skidding.

Firestone high speed Gum-Dipped Tires hold all world records on road and track for safety, speed, mileage and endurance. These records emphasize the undisputed evidence that Firestone Tires are not only blowout-proof but give greatest protection against skidding.

The Greatest Traction Tire Ever Built for Unimproved Roads for Cars, Trucks, Buses, Tractors and Farm Implements
The new Firestone group Grip Tire is built with 54% more tread rubber to give cars, trucks,tractors, and farm implements the greatest traction ever known for mud, snow, unimproved roads and field work. The massive tread is designed for continuous riding contact with the road-eliminating the objectionable "bumping" in other so called Super-Traction tires. The Gum-Dipped Cord Body and patented feature of Two Extra Layers of Gum-Dipped Cords Under the Tread provide greater strength, flexibility and longer life.
