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

These Minerva F205 tyres 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 tyre for daily driving purposes, but only if you never exceed 100 km/h in wet conditions. In wet, ride on these tyres is SUICIDAL!!! Long story short, I wanna live so I am going to sell them to some drifters.

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.

Review your Minerva Radial F 205 >

Ignore my previous review which shows dissatisfaction, I switched to Yoko 553 and after driving immediately on them realised it was a mental barrier I was thinking these are not good tyres. For past few weeks I had a placebo effect that I should switch to a better brand and felt my car was activating its ABS too soon on Minerva. Midway to home I realized these brand new Yokos have the exact same braking and drive response as those Minerva I took off. So I ended up going back to the tyre shop and at some financial compensation loss to the shop got my Minerva back. Now I am more satisfied with them than even before. Go for them, saying this after back to back trying a tyre more than twice as expensive but similar performance.

They were good for the first few thousand kilometres and felt like awesome tyres for the price at par with higher tiers. Now after crossing 5,000 kilometres they seem to be a waste of money. The tyres screech at even the slightest of hard brake and then ABS kicks in. There is great loss of traction at hard acceleration and the VSA kicks in ruining all the pleasure of a full throttle. It was a bad call and I am gonna switch back to any of the known brands

Do not buy, worn out after just two seasons and 24kkm
