CORD TIRES
UALITY in a tire is not appreciated until it asserts itself through long
continued trouble-free performance.
The gauge to this service is the mileage total recorded when the casing finally is discarded.
The notable achievement of nine stock tires which, put to official finish test by the Automobile Club of America, averaged 6,760 miles, definitely established the un- usual quality of Vacuum Cup Tires.
The rainy day certified test of the Pitts- burgh Taxicab Company-in which
•heavy car equipped with Vacuum Cup Tires was driven around a wet corner at 25 miles an hour without skidding-.
conclusively proved the guaranteed ability of the Vacuum Cup tread to resist skid. ding on wet, slippery pavements,
In addition to this proved driving safety and the mileage guarantee--per warranty tag-of 6,000 miles, Vacuum Cup Tires are reasonably priced. They cost approxi mately the same as ordinary 3,500 mile tires and much less than other makes carrying equal mileage surety.
