The tire purchaser may be told by the disreputable dealer that he Is purchasing only a slightly blemished casing, hut neither knows to what extent the blemish or damage may effect the service of the tire. A first class" tire Is one whleh Is produced by a reputable manufacturer and bears his stamp of approval for Its workmanship. It may or may not be guaranteed wfor a definite mileage, but the manufacturer will do the right thing through the replacement or repair if any pronounced failing due to the effect of workmanship or materials occurs.
