General Tires
General tires started in the United States in the early 20th century. In the beginning, General Tire decided to only focus on the replacement tire market, but now they manufacturer tires that are fitted original equipment. The first was called the oversized General Jumbo, and was considered an industry standard for many years. The manufacturer went on to build heavy duty truck tires and expanded their factories. In the 50s, the company started supplying original equipment tires to the likes of Ford and GM. In 1987, the company was acquired by Continental AG of Hanover, Germany.
Over the years, the quality of tires has benefited from the association with Continental, as well as from the German's global distribution network. Today, General tires are exported around the world, for both replacement and OE passenger vehicle and heavy truck tire markets. They have expanded their tire lines to include sport performance tires, passenger car and minivan tires, light truck and SUV tires, and winter tires.
