Goodyear chips in for Tire Safety Week

May 1, 2002

Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co. is offering free tire safety checks at its company-owned stores as part of Tire Safety Week, which started on Monday.

Goodyear's three blimps are using their lighted message boards to remind drivers to check their tire pressure levels this week, as well.

Goodyear stores also are distributing tire safety literature to customers like the Rubber Manufacturer Association's "Be Tire Smart, Play Your PART" brochures.

Several independent tire dealerships are participating in the campaign including Les Schwab Tires, Sullivan Tire Co. and Discount Tire Co.
