The Symmetry radial is Michelin's All-Season tire comfort-tuned for full-sized luxury cars and minivans. Symmetry tires meet Michelin's Green X standard for low rolling resistance that confirms the tire's contribution to reducing vehicle fuel consumption and emissions of CO2 gases. Symmetry radials were developed to provide balanced proportions of ride quality, noise comfort and overall performance, as well as year-round traction, even in occasional light snow.

Symmetry radials use a weather-tuned tread compound molded into a symmetric tread design featuring wide, serrated circumferential tread grooves that evacuate water from under the tire's footprint to resist hydroplaning and enhance wet traction. The tread's interlocking "S"-shaped sipes provide biting edges to enhance traction in light snow. The tire's internal structure includes twin steel belts under the tread to provide strength on top of a polyester cord body that promotes a smooth ride.
