Top 3 Minerva Radial F 205 Reviews

Given 94% while driving a Renault (245/45 R19) on a combination of roads for 500 spirited miles
Hello ,
I have always opted for A brand tires all my life
I think safety is important
Now I came across an acquaintance who had just installed new tires
The Minerva 205
He told me, I have to buy this tire!!
Looking for some information and reviews
Still took the leap
And I have to say, I don't regret it for a second. The grip is the same as the A brand tires
Sound, same
The only thing I immediately felt was how soft the car is now
More comfort than before
A pit is a pit. You continue to feel that, but he finishes everything a little better
I drive sporty and sometimes accelerate quickly and sometimes brake too late
The Minerva F205 has no problem with this
A little rain or a lot, it will stick to the track
You shouldn't do anything crazy and go to the limited with your car!!
What surprises me now is the price for my 19-inch tires
Michelin, Goodyear, which I always priced between 150 and 250 euros just for the tire
Now place 108 euros (all in) if you buy the Minerva F205 you will not regret it

Given 50% while driving a Nissan 350z (245/45 R18) on a combination of roads for 2,000 spirited miles
These Minerva F205 tires were already fitted on a 350Z, which I bought as a daily driver. Condition was nearly new, 2 years old DOT. It can be accepted as a very cheap tire for daily driving purposes, but only if you never exceed 100 km/h in wet conditions. In wet, ride on these tires is SUICIDAL!!! Long story short, I wanna live so I am going to sell them to some drifters.

Given 50% while driving a Saab Automobile NG9 5 2.0TiD sedan (245/40 R18) on a combination of roads for 6,000 average miles
These where included with a set of rims I purchased. The condition was like new when I got them.
The tires are fine. Not the best and I've had worse.
But going from a set of GoodYears to these where a downgrade for sure. They are a bit scary under hard braking and when pushed to the limit.. And they wear out very quick.
Replacing these with a set of GoodYear Eagle F1 Asymmetric 6's. Tires are safety, and running cheap tires is not safe for either you or other motorist around you.
