Minerva 209

The Minerva 209 summer tire is an excellent option for compact and mid-size passenger cars. The operational properties are tailored towards driving and acoustic comfort, which significantly reduces driver fatigue on long trips.

The tread pattern is beneficially distinguished by the distribution of asymmetrically arranged elements into several functional areas. The shoulder zones with wide blocks prevent lateral skidding during maneuvering, increase traction and deceleration intensity on wet surfaces, improve handling responsiveness, and reduce wear. In turn, the longitudinal ribs in the center of the tread allow the tire to better hold a straight line, requiring less effort from the driver to steer. The lugs located here also reduce the risk of aquaplaning and improve traction on wet surfaces.

Key features:

- wide shoulder blocks with long lugs provide excellent longitudinal traction on wet surfaces, stability during maneuvering;
- solid longitudinal ribs in the center facilitate handling, reduce rolling resistance.
