My first experience with Barum brand was on a 1993 Suzuki Swift GT I owned for nearly 20 years. Best "pocket rocket" I ever owned and probably the most reliable car I've ever owned. I had installed a set of Bravuris 2 tires on the SSGT. Barum had a tire in the size I needed for the SSGT (and not many brands produced the tire size). Tires were super! I've been sold ever since.

I had a set of Barums installed on our 2006 VW New Beetle and now also have them on the XFire.
