The Firestone Balloon Tread. scien- tically designed three years ago. and unchanged today has the wear-resisting qualities that give thousands of extra miles. This tread must be placed on a carcass that has the qualifications to withstand terric exing. The Firestone carcass is made of cords dipped in a rubber solution which not only saturates and insulates every bre of every cord. but unies sidewalls with carcass, elimin- ating any possibility of separation under the extreme exing of low- pressure tires.
