I don't know whether I made the right decision. I told my dealer my 01' Aero didn't have the 17" wheels and tires. I asked them to reduce the price because the car had 16" wheels and tires. They told me a CPO Saab had to be compliant with the requirement of the program and they replaced the 16" inches with the 17" inces for me (they got the 17" from a newer Aero, I think it is a 2002. The wheels look much better than the 01's).
After that I found one of the tires had different speed rating. I sent an email to SaabUSA and SaabUSA told me all 4 tires of a CPO needs to be the same (size and speed rating). I showed the email to the dealer and they replaced the unmatching one with a matching one (a new tire) for me.
My concerns are:
1. I need to be careful with the wheels because I have low profile tires.
2. I need to but a set of winter tires because the "W" rated one will not be good for snow.
3.It is good to have a new tire but sometimes, the car pulled to one side under hard braking. I may need to buy a new tire to match the other one ($200+ per tire).
