WITH ALL-WEATHER TREAD tyres on your car, you stop when the brakes go on-no sliding or skidding ... you start when you step on the throttle-no spinning or slipping. That's because those thick, sharp-edge dia- monds of tough, stubborn tread-rubber bite deep and give traction in all directions. And this slow-wearing tread will still leave a sharp im- priat after many thousands of miles. Fit a full now set- of ALL-WEATHER TREAD tyres today!
