I have a 95 900SE with which I equipped snow tires two years ago. I chose the Artic Alpins in 195/65-15 size. The manual for your model should give the recommended size for your car.
I was pleased with Aplins - great on ice, great on wet and dry road and the whine in the wet is helpful in determining if you are driving on ice or water. On ice the whine goes away.
However - last year we put Blizzak MZ-02's on my wifes VW Golf. Just as good on dry, ice and wet - but in snow the Blizzaks are vastly superior if the snow is deeper than 1-2". There are several modles of Blizzaks some are better in deeper snow falls. Read the FAQ's, ratings and tests at http://www.tirerack.com - my advice - I would go with the Blizzaks next time.
Good luck with your choice.
