Old speeding tickets in Berlin

Back in the 80s I lived in Berlin and worked as a contractor for the US Military. Because Berlin was an "Occupied City" at the time and I had US plates on my car the Berlin Police had no jurisdiction over me and could not give me a traffic ticket. Prior to moving, I sold my car and drove a rental car for a month (with German plates). Back in the states a few months later, I received three speeding tickets in the mail from the car rental company (photo radar in Berlin). I never paid these tickets. This was over 20 years ago. Does Germany have any kind of statute of limitations on tickets? I travel to Germany quite a bit and don't want to get pulled over by the police for a ticket and find out there's a warrant out for my arrest.
