Minerva Eco Stud is an environmentally-friendly tyre, engineered for everyday driving during the winter months. The model was built around a rubber compound which sustains its full flexibility even at low temperatures. Improved grip and controllability have been enhanced due to an enlarged surface area with the road.
Minerva Eco Stud is built using a rubber mix which has been optimized to be of a lower weight than the standard composite. Consequently, rolling resistance has been reduced, and lower fuel consumption and carbon dioxide emissions into the atmosphere are delivered too. The tyre is designed to repel mechanical damage and premature wear. These features make the Minerva Eco Stud tyre more ecological and economical. The tyre is not only offered at a budget price, but it achieves low running costs too. This tyre has a long service life by equalizing the distribution of pressure acting on the tyre.
Minerva Eco Stud erodes slowly and uniformly, and this gives the driver the benefit of a full performance over the tyre's lifespan.
The Minerva Eco Stud has been optimized for challenging conditions on snow, ice and mud. It achieves short braking distances, and is very reliable in extreme weather conditions. This model is also engineered to allow for spikes to be added to your tyre, if needed.
