the Great Gulf Tire!

STOP IN AND SEE IT
FOR YOURSELF I
Less chance of blowouts and
carcass failures with this tire, for a
double breaker strip cushions shocks.
The tire lasts longer—wears
more evenly, edge to edge, for its
flatter tread design spreads the wear
over a wider contact area.
7 zigzag ribs of the Gulf Tire
fight skids. Their flex-wiping action
breaks up water film on wet roads.
The 7 ribs mean there’s a
“riding bar” down the center of the
tire. Right at the point of greatest
pressure, the load rides on rubber,
not on a groove!
Can stand punishment. This
tire’s stronger carcass has more and
stronger cords in every inch of ply!
Sidewall shields protect tire
against curbstone bruises.
Warranty accompanies each
Gulf Tire—ishonored by Gulf Dealers
everywhere!
