The Smaller Cars—and the
- t1
World's Most Popular Tires
No tires bearing the Goodyear name, not even
the famous Goodyear Cords which equip the
world's highest-priced cars, embody a higher
relative value than do Goodyear Tires in
the 30x3-, 30x3Vr, and 31x4-inch sizes.
In these tires owners of Ford, Chevrolet,
Dort, Maxwell, and other cars taking these
sizes, are afforded a measure of performance
and service such as only the world's largest
tire factory devoted to these sizes can supply.
All that this company's experience and
methods have accomplished in these tires is
available to you now at the nearest Goodyear
Service Station.
Go to this Service Station Dealer for these
tires and for Goodyear Heavy Tourist Tubes.
He has them.
