I have 195/60/15's on my 9-3 base. I have H rated Dunlop Sport A2's on it.
The tire has gotten good reviews on Tirerack, and after a full year with
the tires, I must say I agree with the reviews. I actually got home in about 8 inches of snow on Christmas (I was impressed but put my snow tires back on till summer). The tires grip well with no wheel spin in
dry and wet.
H-rated is up to 149 MPH and I didn't think I'd be going that fast. I imagine the higher speed rated tires have a stiffer sidewall??
I picked up some 16 inch Saab wheels for summer. I'll be in the market
for tires then..I do see there are more 205/55/16 tires available then
the 50 series. The Dunlop Sport 5000 Asymetricals are popular and W
rated? All the 50 series tires, with good Tirerack reviews, seem to be
summer tires.
I had no idea the H rated tires lasted longer then the W or Z rated.. Maybe
I'll just get a 16" set of Sport A2s..
