Whitewall Tires
HI
' ,1
\WK
—to enhance Cadillac's distinctive appearance. The
dual stripe whitewall tire shown at left is available
on all models in a 9.00 x 15 size tubeless with the
exception that, on the Seventy-Five models, an
8.20 x 15 size tubeless is provided. Body construc-
tion of this tire provides a soft, quiet ride. Blaekwail
tires in the same sizes as listed above are standard
equipment.
Higher Mileage-»H.D. Tires (Eldorado Only)
—ideal for high speed, high mileage motoring. Body
construction of this deluxe option consists of two
polyester cord plies crisscrossing at an angle. Top-
ping this are two fiberglass cord belts running
around the tire's circumference. This helps stabilize
the tread, resulting in longer tread life, responsive
handling during braking and acceleration and excel-
lent traction on wet surfaces. The tread is slightly
wider for increased footprint contact with the road
surface. This results in excellent stability and firm
steering control. Blackwalls not available.
Controlled Differential
—for surer traction and handling. Cadillac Controlled
Differential adds another reassuring touch to the
pleasure of driving a fine automobile. In any forward
gear as well as reverse, power is directed to the
driving wheel having the best grip on the road
surface. Thus, the driver can be more confident
whenever he encounters ice, snow, sand, mud,
gravel and wet or oily pavement. Controlled Differ-
e n t i a l also adds stability on r u t t e d roads and
contributes to longer tire life. Not available on the
Eldorado.
