I'm running the 215 45 tires - that's what Saab recommends even tho' they do create a speedo error - the 225 40 are a better fit as far as DIAMETER goes however I believe that they will rub on turns (front) and and on the suspension and gas filler on the rear. Maybe someone else has experience.
I'm running the Dunlop 215 45 17 SP9000s from Tire Rack - reasonable price, superb wet and dry roadholding (especially wet) I love them! - I havn't rotated the tires and have about 27k on them with 60% wear on the front and very little on the rear - lots of highway driving though - I think they wear fast in city driving.
