About General Tire
The General Tire and Rubber Company is an American manufacturer of tires for motor vehicles. General Tire was founded in 1915 in Akron, Ohio by William F. O'Neil. In 1943 General Tire branched out from its core business by purchasing radio stations which eventually became known as RKO General.
General Tire reorganized its holdings into the holding company GenCorp in 1984, with General Tire and RKO General as subsidiaries. In 1987, GenCorp sold General Tire to German tire maker Continental AG. General Tire still exists today as part of Continental's American operations.
