Gum-Dipping insulates and impregnates every strand of every cord in rubber and gives strength with flexibility—making possible a cool running tyre of greater dependability and mileage. The powerful non-skid tread and sidewalls of Firestone Bus pneumatics are made of a specially compounded rubber, selected for its toughness, / strength and resistance to the grind of ruts, mud, and broken pavements. The semi-flat tread is a ; valuable feature that gives more riding surface and better distribution of load and strain, with improved wearing qualities. ' You will find, too, after using Firestone Tyres, s they give more miles per shilling and less trouble than any other tyres you have used. mm mWM US OBTAINABLE FROM ALL LEADING GARAGES AND TYRE mm ■■■■&■'
