Matthew, The differences in the compound of each tire has nothing to do with it...The difference in tread design and depth and the resulting difference in traction of a snow tire, as opposed to an all weather tire is the key...I have owned three Saabs, two 900s and currently an 87 9000S...I have always used all weather tires without a problem...Those tires tackled the snows of Belgium and Germany and sand on the beaches of the Gulf Coast. Unless you live in an area that has a lot of snow most of the year, save your money. Ken Washington 87 9000S 87 900S 83 900T
