When ever you take a casing off,
especially an old one, examine its

places in the fabric. If one is found,
slip a blowout patch under it when
you put the tire on.
Nen-skid tiros, with their heavier
trend, should be used on the rear
wheels of all cars; the strain s far
greater back there. When the cas-
ings wear thin, they can be shifted
to the front wheels or carried as ex-
