If I remember correctly Barum and at some point along the timeline
became part of Continental, not sure how Tufo fits in.
Barum was still a separate company in the early to mid-70's I had their
tires on a bicycle, an offroad motorcycle and I remember winning a set
of their rally car tires.
Semperit (Austrian?) who made both car and bicycle tires was also swallowed up by Continental.
