Aero sedan or wagon, all the same. Saab actually sold both the 205 and the 215 width snow tire packages when they had the V-6 arc since the added weight of the 6 up front called for a slightly higher load rating, but in reality, the 205 is probably the better choice for cutting through the snow. I have used the 205 size on both my 9-5's to date and have found it to be a terrific car for getting through the snowy NH winters. Just ordered a set of the Pirelli Sottozero snows yesterday as replacements for the now noisy Gislaved tires I got with my car. I think that you will find lots of tire opinions on this board and just like the usual oil jihad that breaks out here from time to time, there is no single right answer. Most of the people I see around here in winter have the 205 size though, you can visually see the difference in the 205 and the 215 as far as the footprint goes.
