Dunlop is a Japanese concern, Lawrence, formerly British.  Cooper Tires,
an American firm, owns Avon, also formerly a British marque.  Metzler
and Pirelli are Italian.  Continental is still German owned, I think.
Michelin is owned by our staunch allies, the French (Yech, patooey).
Most others are Japanese, to complete the circle.  Confused yet?

I believe that Dunlop is the only U.S. manufacturer of motorcycle tires 
left but I could be wrong.
