How 8% Shortage of Air-Space, in Tyres, may cost 25% of the CAR life! 'OLID Rubber Tyres would , LAST much longer, on ' Pleasure Cars, than "PneuJaatics." Yet nobody so uses them! Because, what Solid-Rubber or Steel might save on Tyres, would represent only a fraction of the additional Wear and Tear they would cost on Motor, and Car-Mechanism, —throughexcessiveVibration,RoadShock, and "Cruelty" to Passengers. The shorter Mileage of Pneumatic Tyres must therefore be balanced against the longer-life of the CAR and the Luxury, or Comfort, PURPOSE for which that CAR was primarily purchased. THE kigheritie Air-Pressure you must carry, in Pneumatic Tires, the less pneumatic they are, — the nearer they come to the Solid-Rubber Tyre result on Car Mechanism, and Car Occupants. But,—per contra, —when towered Air-Pressure is carried in Tyres (admitting of more than 14fo of the Tyre Cross-Section diameter being in-contact-with-ihe-road) you riot only handicap the power 'of your Car, but you Wear out, and Burn out, Tyres long before their proper Mileage has been rendered. So there you are,—"between the Devil and the Deep Sea "I What to do? HEN your Tyres are UnT r der-Sized for the Weight of your Car and its Occupants, youMUSTusean excessively high Air-Pressure in order to keep off-the-earth more than the proper Ufo of Tyre Cross-Section Diameter. That excessively high Pressure is then not only a cause of excessive Vibration, but it also causes an excessive strain on the Fabric walla of the Tyre, tendi ture "bursts." If you carry less Air-Pressure,— to wit, a normal, Comfortable, and non-vibrating, pressure,—the excessive load (in proportion to Tyre Area> wears out your Tyres in short ■order, while using np Petroi extravagantly. SO, you need fte RIGHT SEE of Tyre,—the FULLSIZE specified by the Car Maker, —for satisfactory results. That is why you should be wjterested in knowing that aU tnOßmeter Tyres except GOODRICH Tyresare UNDER-SIZED. Measure them, and see! Then bear in mind that Goodrich FULL-SIZED Millimeter Tyres cost you no more than same quality of "regular" (or Under-Sised) Tyres. n.Z. Roprosantatlves and Distributors: E. W. PIDGEON & CO.
