HE “I never knew a tire before that gave such all around satisfaction. I have not had a * puncture during the entire year; all four of the tires still have the same air in them since the day they were put on. “There is no reason to fear riding on slippery or wet roads for those ‘Rs’ take care of the skidding and I think the ‘R’ means ‘RUN’ so speedily and lightly does the car travel. I wouldn’t use another tire. Revere's are my choice.” YOU CAN OBTAIN LIKE SATISFACTION IF YOUR CAR IS FITTED WITH REVERE TIRES SEE OUR WINDOW Full Line of these tires and tubes in stock.
