Go with the Hakkes. These gummy-bears are simply awesome on a Saab.
You'll not be getting stuck or "losing it" in a FWD Saab 900. You'll be driving by many who are......many of them who have the studs and the AWD but can't hack the weight distribution, the SUV and crossover vehicles' height above the road (loaded), the weight distribution, and the many other factors that go into snow and ice handling.
Watch out for these "other guys". They can hit you when they lose it. Further, they will fail to understand how you're doing so well and they're not.
