They also told us that Goodrich Truck Tires had given them so many surplus miles of untroubled service that they couldn't help dropping in and telling us about them. They said they found that the extra-thick tread in Goodrich De Luxe tires enable them to increase their profits because De Luxe could carry hundreds of pounds more weight than tires of equal widths, at the same time giving greater protection to the truck against road shocks and vibration.
