Where the
Grind Is Hardest
The three and one-half ton truck of
the Omaha City Ice Company, of
Omaha, is a hard taskmaster for tires.
It is frequently overloadedand with
dead-weight loads. Those loads that
add a second jolt to the tires wherever
the slightest street depression is en
countered. Until the Omaha Ice applied Goodrich
De Luxe TruckTires to the wheels of
this truck they had virtually despaired
of getting over 6,000 miles in tire ser
vice. So many had failed.
To date on this truck De Luxe Tires
have run 9,000 miles and are so little
worn that the owners confidently expect
. to double that figure.
Class tells in the hard grinds and
here is where De Luxe quality gets in
its best licks.
If you have serious transportation
problems, tire troubles or seek lower
maintenance then put Goodrich De
Luxe Tires on your wheels. For greater
mileage less vibration and greater
economy.
