437 c LONGER NON-SKID MILEAGE How brutal f GRINDSTONE TESTS developed an astonishing new tyre Goodyear engineers solve puzzle and build an improved AU-Weather Tread that gives 43% longer We knew we had solved the mystery when this new "G-3" Goodyear tyre showed ability to deliver 43% more non-skid mileage. It was an amazing triumph. It had outlasted all other treads tested on razor-sharp highspeed "grindstones.'* It had survived,the most grueling night-and-day road tests ever made. **G-3" was one of many tread designs originated to stop the mysterious tread-wear malady that was attacking all makes of tyres. Although tyres were being made better than ever, ALL MARES OF TREADS WERE WEARING OUT TOO FAST! Exhaustive research discovered that the cause was the new higher-powered, faster-starting, quicker-stopping automobiles. They were imposing a burden on tyres too great for the treads. So Goodyear engineers were ordered to build a tyre equal to the new cars. The new "G-3"'All-Weather was their answer. amazing toughness and long wear: A WIDER, FLATTER TREAD—ACTUALLY MORE ROAD COJNTACT. GREATER TRACTION—I 6% MORE NONSKID BLOCKS. A FIRMER, MORE COMPACT TOEAD—RIBS ARE NARROWER; LESS "SQUIRMING" UNDER PRESSURE. MORE RUBBER IN THE TREAD—AN AVERAGE OF 2 POUNDS MORE PER TYRE. IMPROVED, SUPER-STRONG BEAD. ADDED SAFETY—IN ACTUAL TEST, 43% LONGER NON-SKID MILEAGE. The "G-3" tread is made possible by widening the road-contact. This means additional strain on the sidewalls. But Goodyear's famous extradurable, extra-elastic SUPERTWIST cord carcass has ample reserve strength to absorb this extra strain. And because SUPERTWIST is an exclusive Goodyear feature, the greater safety and longer wear of the "G-3" All-Weather design can be had in Goodyear Tyres only. Thus the mystery of fast tread-wear on modern automobiles has not only been solved, but }, n m ,;\ x \ \ la4A l»^: : i^ It outlasted all other tread* in grueling "grindstone" test*. ANSWERED: "G-3" is as far ahead of ordinary tyr< of today are superior to the lumbering "horseless carriages" of years gone by. See the "G-3" All-Weather at your Goodyear dealer's. See its outstanding improvements. And remember, with all its extra advantages, it doesn't cost you extra! WARNING! Remember, you have "NON-SKID" before you can have "NON-SKID mileage". And to have " NONSKI D" you have to have GRIP where you see It here—GßlP in the centre of the tread—the place where it counts, because it's the spot there the tyre contacts the road. Look at the grip of thii Goodyear Tyre and ask yourself why buy any tyre that lacks this safety? And keep in mind that you cannot successfully build this type of non-skid tyre without the extra-durability of Supertwist cords. £ PROVED FOR MONTHS ON NEW ZEALAND ROADS—because months ago the first "G-3" AilWeather tyrestwere put on sale without advertisement—because they have been used as original equipment on months past.
