LawDog, I will give an impartial answer as I work for Michelin.
The symmetry, and several other styles has gone the way for an all in one styles called the Defender, came out last year, less rubber and more <synth> other goodies in it to get the mileage to last longer. now we have launched one called premier, last even longer they <engineers> say. I make a lot of the snow tires in the plant, I couldn't tell you if they are any good or not, I do make ALOT of them,, so someone likes them, I am talking in the thousands> Being in the south I would think the snow tire would be good for gripping on our paved roads for handling not mileage LOL

btw... Michelin owns B F Goodrich & Uniroyal
just like the walmart brands are knock offs of some Bridgestone's and goodyears etc...,, Michelin makes the Sears tire for them, hell can't think of the name of them,,
