As a matter of figures and measurements, it is an inch bi~£cr on the circumfcrc.-ice.and much thiclicr in the cross section--that is, a 31x3 * inch fire. That extra size means a finer looking, easier riding Ford car to begin, and a longer lived car and tires in the end. Though ' 'Three-Seventy- Fives" cost a lit-le more at the out-et, built to meet the especial needs cf the Ford car tr.d trir.g out its knowji virtues, they soon reveal a greater dollar economy, v.v.ich mates it the better buy in the long run.
