EVERY day more and more new 1948 cars are rolling off the production lines equip­ ped with a new kind of tire. Auto engineers who tested this new tire . . . the Super-Cushion by Goodyear . . . said: “We want this tire for our new cars . ; : now!” Here’s why: First tire to lick lateral shock After the tests these engineers were openly excited. “It really absorbs lateral shock,” they said. “No tire ever did it satisfactorily before!” Springs and conventional tires absorb up-and- down shock. But until Goodyear produced the Super-Cushion, lateral (crosswise) shock was one of the few things yet to be licked in the modern motor, car. Pillowy Super-Cushions soak up crosswise jolts. To you, the motorist, this means a sensation­ ally new luxury ride ... far less fatigue . * . less wear and tear on your car from engine to body bolts. Super-Cushions blot out shocks, help prevent rattles, lengthen the life of your car. e Until Goodyear produced the Super-Cushion, lateral (crosswise) shock was one of the few things yet to be licked in the modern, motor car.

It gives a softer ride, an unbelievably smoother ride . . . not only on bad roads but even on good roads. Super-Cushions bring you indescribable new ease and security. Your car hugs the road better . . . seems to float through traffic. On a small car Super-Cushions give you the ride and feeling of security you get in a big car . . . they make big cars ride even better. Super-Cushions are safer— give more mileage Super-cushions literally flow along the road. You get safer steering, easier handling . . . especially on. curves. Since they’re softer, they “roll with the punch,” are harder to cut or bruise, have extra blowout resistance. Super-Cushions run cooler, build up less pres­ sure, give greater mileage than the finest standard tires. Super-Cushions on new cars Your new car may have Super-Cushions.
