It was distinctly a new problem, for here wag a car with cpzieker acceleration, greater, sped land' mbre braking efficiene UiiW.iiny'J car of eimillr site or weight. Jj So that everyJord owner might be assured 6f maximum tire mileage at the lowest cost, the Ford Motor Company devoted many month' to research and experiment in conjunction with the leading tire manufacturers. As a result, certain definite specifications Were developed for tires for. the new Ford. These specify cords of certain strength and texture, a large volume.

Every tire is marked on the side wall with a red spot to show where the valve stem should be when the tube is inserted.

This is just sY little thing, but it Assures a formly hh standard of tire per formanee at all speeds. For best result, the tires on the new Ford should be kept inflated to an air pressure of 35 pounds and checked regularly to insure' this pressure all the time. This' is important. Low inflation breaks down, the side Walls of a tire. By causing overheating, it also do stroys the rubber that acts as an insujatidtt, with consequent sepa ration of the cord.

At the end of each 5Q00 Jwhen you have the frpnt wheels packejl with grease, it is a good plan to have the wheel alignment checked. This will prevent the, possibility of premature wear the tires, I Then punctures come, as tKey will with aty tire, you will find the Ford dealer particularly well equipped to make repairs quickly and at small cost.
