I really don't know the root cause of all this tire wear on newer Saabs.
It seems to be several reasons and yes, the shocks always feels good when doing a bounce test but they might not perform to perfection when driving over bumpy streets at high speed.
It's very difficult to determine exact performance of a shock without a high speed camera rigged up and filming the tire.
But we have seen and heard of rear shocks going bad on the 9-5 so it might be one of the causes together with bad brand tire for that car and alignment shops not doing a full quality 4 wheel alignment.
