In front tires, Jor easiest steering, use a few pounds more air. * * * * TH! above are a few samples. Our com- plete schedule includes low pressure for every make of car—come in and see yours. Let us show you how the Blowout-Proof Tire makes this luxurious low pressure an actual feature of economy. ERE AGAIN is proof that there is no other tire like the Blowout-Proof Tire...It challenges every compari- son—for easy riding as well as safety. Just look at the comparative air pressures in the chart... Note the astonishing low pressures which the new General Dual- Balloon permits. Standardized tire construction today demands more or less high pressure—but so unique, so different is the patented construc- tion of the Blowout-Proof Tire, it lets you enjoy tremendously reduced air pressures - with absolute safety from blowout. The result is the smoothest, most luxurious riding ease ever achieved in any tire. But that is not all. Added to this superla- tive comfort you will have soft, skid-safe traction far beyond anything ever imagined in motoring. Naturally, the remarkable success of the Blowout-Proof Tire has made it a target for wide imitation. But here is an easy way to distinguish the genuine Blowout-Proof Tire from any substitutes offered by the industry: Compare the recommended pressure for all other tires with the remarkable low pressure made possible by the Blowout-Proof Tire. After all, this low pressure is the real acid test of safe tire construction. Every motor- ist at some time forgets to watch air pressure. That’s when the only tire that is safe from blowout is the one that is built to stand the abuse of neglected pressure. The Dual-Balloon is “fool-proof.” It can run as low as half pressure for days at a time without the disastrous flex-breaks from internal friction which cause blowouts in other tires. In all the industry it is the only tire that offers these advantages of low-pressure comfort and high-speed safety.
