The ones you wind up putting on a Saab seem, from most reports, to wear too fast. Certainly was our experience with the MXV4s we had on our 9-5 Linear wagon. Wear bars in 30M miles--not a great value at all.
IMHO, Michelins are totally mediocre tires. Goodrich G-Force are a good alternative as are several others.
Do some research on Tire Rack and consider shopping around. COSTCO is not always the best buy, and some local non-chain shops can give you a better selection and better service.
