Rackiife Bros, Co. Inc| Newm Britas General makes all types of Balloon Tires and therefore is not prejudiced in favor of any one type.

They run with lower air pressure than the Balloons of any other make. They do not cut down power. They show a smaller power cogsumption than the Balloons of any other make. Tests show a range of 50% on a level road in power consump- tion between different mitakes of Balloons. General Balloons consume 307: less power the averiz;e of all other makes tested. P These General Balloons are made to fit present wheels on cars now using tires of these sizes— 30x37; 31x4, 32x4, 32x4%, 33x4%4 and 33x 5. They enable you to equip your car with Balloon Tires wthout the expense of changing wheels or rims. They run with approximately the same low air pressure prescribed by other manufacturers for Balloons requiring wheel change—in some cases they run with' even less air pressure, but in a few cases slightly more. A Balloon Tire is a true balloon to exactly the extent of the low- pressure advantages it gives Regardless of current claims, low air pressure is the final answer. Whether you want Balloon Tires that require special wheels or Bal- loon Tires that fit your present wheels or Regular size Cord Tires especially built for low air pressure—what you really seek is low air pressure. Any manufacturer who tells you that only a tire requiring change of wheels is a Balloon Tire does so because he cannot yet supply you with Balloon Tires to fit present wheels. Here are the facts from a manufacturer who makes all types:— There is only one point of difference between Balloon Tires that require special wheels and Balloon Tires that fit present wheels. In the case of Balloons requiring special wheels (the new 207, 21", 22" sizes), the space gained by using these smaller diameter wheels permits the use of slightly fatter Balloons. Balloons to fit present wheels (standard 23” wheels) must naturally be slightly smaller than their brother Balloons in order to clear all body and fender points. For example, comparing the 6.20 Balloon (requiring wheel change) with the 5.77 (which fits present wheels) you'll find a difference of less than one-half inch in the cross-section. In some sizes there is no difference between the two in air pressure and in other sizes the difference doesn’t exceed five: pounds. Applied in correct sizes, neither type will noticeably change gear ratios, inter- fere with body clearances, or cause any mechanical because the soft state of inflation and the conformity to the road compensate for the little difference in diameter of the wheels, In addition to Balloons requiring wheel change and Bailoons to fit present wheels, General also gives you low air pressure advantages in its Regular size Cords. Thus General offers the only complete selec- tion of Balloons and Low-Pressure Cords. After all, it is not a question of who first called a tire “Balloon,” or who made the first Balloon. The Balloons of all makes are built upon the one principle of low air pressure. The question of prior- ity in Balloon Tire making is important only insofar as it guides your selection of the most dependable tire equipment. In going to the General Tire dealer—Jow air pressure headquarters— you assure yourself of getting the product developed by the one company with years of successful experience in low-pressure con- struction. Talk over this low-pressure subject with your friends who use Generals. For years;they have known General as the low-aif- pressure Cord Tire. Come in and let us give you complete information on Balloon Tires and how you can apply/iow air pressure to your car in three ways with General Cords. ' This table shdws a few makes and models of cars and the different ways they can be equipped with General Cords to obtain the advantages of low air pressure. We will be glad to give you the same information on any car.
