Watch Tyres These Hot Days
:j* WORD op two about tyre troubles after the heat wave we have < : t* experienced lately will not be amiss. . ..*.,-. Probably most motorists are under the Impression that on a hot • day they should ease the pressure m their tyres. This is the wrong ' 'thing to do. If any alteration is made, it should be to pump the tyre up 7 a couple of pounds above normal. . ' ' V ! The reason for this is that the heat generated by the tyre itself, m addition to that transmitted from the hot road, renders it liable to , flex more than under ordinary conditions, and thus tend to disintegrate the fabric, By pumping it a little harder the flexing is reduced. •MtniiHiiiiuintuirturTtiiiuniiutiicuiirriiifiifiiiHUuniuiiiuHiiMiiiHUtMuiiiiiiriiiiiuNitiiMiitntiiiiiMHtHiMMiiiHMiHintNiiiiiMuiiiiiiMiinjiiuniiiiiiniiMiniiiiiiiiii
