General tyres: a century of genuine quality
Founded in 1915 in Ohio by William F. O’Neil, General Tire produces tyres for barely all kinds of vehicles: light and medium trucks, giant tires, special vehicles and common automobiles.Since 1987, General Tire has blossomed into Continental Tire North America, a large company which currently has 9,000 employees and 5 factories throughout North America. The products of this brand are welcomed by many leading automakers, for example, General Motors, Mercedes-Benz, and Volkswagen.In 2012, General Tire gained leadership in the development, manufacture, and selling of high-class tyres for off-road vehicles. The brand is famous for its strong and long-lasting 4x4 tyres. Even if you’re driving in a desert or in a mountainous area, these tyres will match all your best expectations.In 2010, the North American branch of Continental Tire announced that the General Tire brand became the official tyre of the Best in the Desert Off-Road Racing series. Besides, the Continental General Altimax RT tyre showed the highest result among the four “standard all-season passenger tyres” and was highly rated by the Tire Rack experts at the South Bend (Indiana) test site.
