History

Mickey Thompson has been a leading name in the wheel and tire industry for 49 years.  When he started the company with Gene McMannis in 1963 he already had an extensive background in racing.  He had designed, driven and even promoted race cars.  His partner McMannis had already been designing tires for years and even held patents for several of his designs.
