Minerva Radial F 205 Owner Reviews

Review this tyre

What owners say summarised from 13 reviews

The Minerva Radial F 205 receives its clearest owner praise for comfort and value, while dry grip, braking and wet grip divide opinion. Nine of 13 reviews are neutral overall and four positive, but individual accounts range from satisfaction in everyday use to concern under harder braking or cornering. Seven reviews are initial impressions, so the overall picture is weighted towards early use. Wear comments are limited and mixed, with a mid-life complaint of rapid wear but insufficient support for a typical lifespan. One owner explicitly withdrew an earlier criticism after comparing another tyre, so those two accounts should not be read as a consistent deterioration pattern.

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.
