# Michelin XAS – A Legacy of Innovation ## Pioneering Asymmetrical Design The Michelin XAS redefined performance with its groundbreaking asymmetrical tread pattern. This innovative design allowed the inner and outer sections of the tyre to perform distinct functions, enhancing grip, stability, and handling across diverse road conditions. ## Benchmark in Driving Precision Introduced in 1965, the XAS quickly became the gold standard for precision and control. It maintained its status as a leading choice through the 1970s, trusted by drivers who demanded superior responsiveness and balanced road contact. ## Why Asymmetry Matters Asymmetrical tyres like the XAS deliver improved cornering stability and even tread wear. By optimizing the tread for both lateral and longitudinal forces, they offer a smoother, more controlled driving experience—especially in wet or challenging conditions..
