Over 600,000 have now been sold. Last year our tire sales trebled because of this tire’s popularity. This year, 64 leading moter, car makers have contracted for these tires. The present demand is twice that of last ycar—six times that of two years ago. Our enormous plants are run night and day, with three shifts of men, to supply it. All because these tires now cost nothing extra, and they cut tire bills in two. Goodyear No-Rim-Cut Tire This is the tire as it fits any standard rim. Com- pare it with the clincher tire fitted on the same rim. See picture in next column. The removable rim flanges are simply slipped to the opposite sides of the rim. | Then they curve out- ward instead of inward. The tire, when deflated, rests on a rounded edge and rim-cutting is made impossible No-Rim-Cut tires have no hooks on the base. They do not need to be hooked to the rim, No tire belts are needed when you use these tires. There is nothing to “freeze” into the rim flange. The reason lies in 126 braided wires which are vul- canized into our tire base. That makes the base un- stretchable. The tire can't come off until you remove the flange, because nothing can possibly stretch it. We control this feature by patent. It is the only prac- |tical method yet devised to {make an unstretchable tire base.

You can sce how the flanges dig into the tire—how they rim-cut a punctured tire Look again at the pictures _ Note how No-Rim- Cut tires begin to flare right from the base of the rim, Because of that flare we can make the tires 10 per cent. oversize. And we do it without extra charge. That means to per cent more air—to per cent. greater carrying capacity. And that, with the aver- age car, adds 25 per cent to the tire mileage. That 10 per cent. oversize takes care of the extras —the top, glass front, gas tank, etc. It saves over- loading, saves blow-outs. Nine times in ten a tire without it carries too much load. These two features together—No-Rim-Cut and oversize—under average conditions cut tire bills in two. Yet they cost nothing extra now. Isa tire like that worth asking for when other tires, at an equal price, do only half as much ? So many men think so that the demand for these tires has become over- whelming. Enough have been sold already tv equip 150,000 cars. The demand has doubled in the past few months. Our Tire Book, based on 12 years of tire making, tells many facts you should know.
