TIRE DELAYS The great bugbear of motoring is tire de- lay on the road. Do away with it by using Firestone Daachite DEMOUNTABLE RIMS They carry your spare tires already inflated, ready to substitute, rim and all, for injured tires. About two minutes and the journey is resumed, without hard work, worry, perspiration or pumping. Firestones are the only Demountable Rims of the quick-detachable type which have been tried out and have made good in actual service the’ only ones good enough to be:tued on exhibiting care'at any of the 1910 Automobile Shows. At the four National Shows alone, 50% more exhibitors used them than any other demount- able rims of any type, clincher or otherwise. They are the only quick-detachable Demountable Rims now being delivered and equipped promptly. Firestone quick-detachable feature facilitates changing tires on the spare rim at the journey's end, or as often as required on the trip—a point doubly appreciated by users of other demountable rims. Equip your car with Firestone Tires and De- moantable Rims— the tires least likely to require changing, and the best means of tire chang- ing when required. Ask us about their cost.
