S. Tire Store regularly and have our tire experts give your tires a thorough examination. A small casing break repaired NOW will give you thousands of extra miles, and if any of your tires are getting smooth, one of our grade synthetic recaps will give you real mileage. While you are on the lot don't forget to have our battery man check your battery. As you know battery weather is just around the corner.

Don't wait until you get stalled before you have it checked. Maybe a good charge will bring it up to par. If not and it needs replacing we have a complete stock of famous U. S. BATTERIES.

We anticipate a battery shortage this winter so don't delay. MAKE THIS YOUR TIRE BATTERY HEADQUARTERS!
