We have a 2002 Aero and have purchased Nokian NRW's for the impending winter season. In the past, we have always used winter tires for previous Saab's BMW's, Mercedes and others.
We live in the city and getting in and down our alley is always a challlenge once the first snow arrives. If you live in the city, then you know that the alley's get plowed last and often not at all.
I strongly urge you to get snows even though the past few years have not been "bad". Remember 1979-80? It can happen again and will one of these years.
We have a three year lease. With the factory tires only used in the summer and the Nokian's in the winter, it washes out the same as purchasing a replacement set of tires at 30K. When the lease expires, the michelins will only have 15-18k on them.
We leased the car at Saab Exchange in Lake Bluff. I did not buy the winter tires from them. I bought a wheel and tire combo from Ronal, SaabNet sponser through this site.
