Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

Firestone Tyre and Rubber Co. Ltd., Great West Road, Brentford, Middlesex.

EIGHT types of tyre are shown on Stand 193. Two of these are steel-cord radials, the H and the T. both with low rolling resistance, long life and high puncture resistance—the "T" being the robustly-patterned high-traction model. Weight-saving and low running cost are special attractions of the Tubeless Transport tyre, while the Duplex is also tubeless but is intended as a "single" replacement for twins or as an oversize tyre to increase load capacity or mobility_ The All Traction Heavy Duty is an on/offthe-road model for tough work, the smaller sizes having a scuffing rib for low-loader applications. Safe grip and high on-road mileage are claimed for the flat-tread Transport model, while the Super Mileage Cross Lug is also long-lived but has high-traction characteristics for loose surfaces.

The Transport 200 has a 40 per cent deeper non-skid tread pattern and deep shoulder bars to give good traction on site work but is a cool-running, stable cover for metalled roads.
