How the Goodrich Fair-List Propaganda Boosted Car Tires
The pamphlet argues that lowering tire and gasoline costs boosts automobile use and industry profits. It asserts that 1.92 million US cars run yearly, 90 percent use pneumatic tires, and cheaper tires and gas expand sales by encouraging more mileage and ownership.

The Goodrich Co. explains that IHIS and their Fair-List drops do not reduce tire quality. They promise to pay for any Safety Non-Skid tire showing reduced gas layers or rubber quality and urge consumers to trust Goodrich claims while noting substantial savings on sizes like 37x5 and 34x4 through the Fair-List program.
